Closed access Metadata (CSL-JSON)
DOI 10.1615/telecomradeng.v78.i6.30
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This article discusses the aspects of processing the statistical data, which is obtained as a result of the packet traffic parameter measurement and represented as a histogram. It reveals that approximating the histogram with a continuous function may lead to noticeable errors, which are especially large if there are several extrema. Based on the histogram data, authors propose an approach to improve the accuracy of the evaluation of the stochastic characteristics that define the quality of the packet traffic processing.
