A principal challenge in supporting real-time video services over ATM is the need to provide synchronous play-out in the face of stochastic end-to-end network delays. In this paper, an intelligent traffic smooth mechanism ( ITSM ) is proposed to meet the continuity requirement which is composed of a back-propagation neural network ( BPNN ) traffic predictor, a play-out buffer, and a fuzzy neural network ( FNN ) based play-out rate determinator. The BPNN traffic predictor online predicts the mean packet rate of the traffic in the future interval ( FI ) and the FNN is designed to adaptively determinate the play-out time according to the number of packets in the buffer and the traffic character predicted. Simulation results show that compared to the window mechanism, ITSM achieves high continuity with accepted delay. Furthermore, ITSM can be adaptively modified to meet the QoS of different kinds of services by FNN parameter training.
