英文摘要：

The paper presented an adaptive fast end-to-end available bandwidth （avail-bw） estimation algorithm （AABw）. The proposed algorithm had the following characteristic ： firstly, for various different cross traffic burstiness and load, the algo- rithm could dynamically tune the length of the probing packet train;secondly, it improved the method of adjusting the rate of the probing packet train, not only it remained the benefit of the fast converge, but also it was more suitable for the burst cross traffic situations; thirdly, improved the algorithm of detecting the OWD trend. Simulation shows that it can measure the availbw of the end-to-end path accurately and fast, and it was suitable for the real-time applications.
