Abstract

This paper attempts to determine whether VER video signals are either non-stationary or self-similar in nature as this has major implications for source characterisation on RTM networks. A quantitative test for determining the extent to which a signal can be considered wide sense stationary is developed from standard hypothesis testing techniques. This test is applied to VER video data and three stationary models. A test is developed from the Hurst exponent estimator and this is also applied to the four sets of data and an additional ARIMA model. The implications of the results for characterisation techniques on ATM networks are discussed.
