Active Queue Management (AQM) can maintain smaller queuing delay and higher throughput by purposefully dropping packets at the intermediate nodes. Most of the existing AQM schemes follow the probability dropping mechanism originated from Random Early Detection (RED). In this paper, we develop a novel packet dropping mechanism for AQM through designing a two-category classifier based on the Fisher Linear Discriminate approach. The simulation results show that the new scheme outperforms other well-known AQM schemes, such as RED, AdaptiveRED, AVQ, PI, REM etc., in the integrated performance. Additionally, our mechanism is simple since it requires few CPU cycles, which makes it suitable for the high-speed routers.
