I've been enjoying this discussion and wonder whether the work going on in the
make-wifi-fast (https://lists.bufferbloat.net/pipermail/make-wifi-fast/) is
relevant.
I only have a 30,000 foot understanding of this work, but it seems the use of
AQL (Airtime Queue Limit) maps better onto the vagaries of 4G/5G radio
transmissions than BQL. Specifically, having a measurement of the actual time
it takes to transmit a packet might give additional information about the
current link speed, with the potential for adjusting the codel target, etc.
Separately, I also wonder whether the Air Time Fairness algorithm might provide
a benefit if the cellphone tower station manufacturers chose to get into the
game.
Thanks.
Rich
