Abstract
When the scale of communication networks has been growing rapidly in the past decades, it becomes a critical challenge to extract fast and accurate estimation of key state parameters of network links, e.g., transmission delays and dropped packet rates, because such monitoring operations are usually time-consuming. In view of that fact that prior studies can infer link delays from a limited number of measurements using compressed sensing, we particularly extend to networks with dynamic changes including link insertion and deletion. Moreover, we propose a more efficient algorithm with a better theoretical upper bound. The experimental result also demonstrates that our algorithm outperforms the previous work in running time while maintaining similar recovery performance, which shows its capability to cope with large-scale networks.
