- Throughput is used as one of the indexes for representing the state of a communication path when data is transferred from a transmitter to a receiver in a conventional bandwidth sharing type packet switching network such as the Internet, an intranet, and a wireless IP network. It is done. Throughput is the amount of execution transfer per unit time of the communication path measured between the transmission end and the reception end, expressed as the number of bits transferred per second, and bps is often used as the unit.
- traffic that a user is currently paying attention to such as a specific video in a video transmission system that transmits video from various locations captured by a plurality of street cameras, is called observed traffic. All other traffic that can affect the traffic is referred to as cross traffic.
- Cross traffic includes not only traffic generated by another application, but also traffic generated by other cameras not currently focused on the same video transmission system.
- the link throughput between each repeater located on the communication path from the transmitter to the receiver is not always constant in time but usually fluctuates.
- the main factor of the fluctuation of the throughput of the link between the repeaters is that the resources of the link that can be used for transferring the observation traffic fluctuate due to the influence of the temporal fluctuation of the cross traffic.

- the monitoring frequency means a probability that the relay is selected as a monitoring target.
- the relationship is such a relationship, it is considered that the monitoring frequency distribution is not suitable for the transmission load state of the repeater on the route, so that the monitoring accuracy is low.
- the monitoring frequency of the relay 4 having a poor transmission state is the highest as compared with other relays, and the monitoring frequency for the other three relays is low.

- the range of the activity ⁇ is limited to a closed section from 0 to 1 for ease of handling (S46 to S49). Due to this limitation, the activity ⁇ is a real value between 0 and 1.
- a state where the activity ⁇ is close to 0 corresponds to a state where the monitoring accuracy is low
- a state where the activity ⁇ is close to 1 corresponds to a state where the monitoring accuracy is high. This is because, according to the dynamics of Equation 4, the degree of activity ⁇ approaches 1 as the monitoring state distribution for the repeater group of the transmission path is in a desirable state, and the monitoring state distribution is more dissociated from the transmission load state of the repeater. This is because the behavior approaches 0.
