Abstract(in English) The available bandwidth on an end-to-end network path is an important performance metric for detecting network congestion, adapting transmission rate, configuring path and topology on overlay networks, and so on. The existing available bandwidth measurement techniques aimed only at knowing available bandwidth of the bottleneck part on the path and they do not specify where is the bottleneck. Also, they can not measure available bandwidth of multiple parts on the path. In this report, we propose a simultaneous measurement method of available bandwidth of multiple parts on an end-to-end network path. The proposed method estimates the available bandwidth based on changes in packet arrival intervals under the situation where intermediate routers can make timestamps of incoming packets. We present extensive simulation results of the proposed method and confirm that it can accurately measure available bandwidth of each part on the path even when the available bandwidth of the sender side network is smaller than that of the receiver side network.
