- """Optimized binary search algorithm for finding NDR and PDR bounds.
-
- Traditional binary search algorithm needs initial interval
- (lower and upper bound), and returns final interval after bisecting
- (until some exit condition is met).
- The exit condition is usually related to the interval width,
- (upper bound value minus lower bound value).
-
- The optimized algorithm contains several improvements
- aimed to reduce overall search time.
-
- One improvement is searching for two intervals at once.
- The intervals are for NDR (No Drop Rate) and PDR (Partial Drop Rate).
-
- Next improvement is that the initial interval does not need to be valid.
- Imagine initial interval (10, 11) where 11 is smaller
- than the searched value.
- The algorithm will try (11, 13) interval next, and if 13 is still smaller,
- (13, 17) and so on, doubling width until the upper bound is valid.
- The part when interval expands is called external search,
- the part when interval is bisected is called internal search.
-
- Next improvement is that trial measurements at small trial duration
- can be used to find a reasonable interval for full trial duration search.
- This results in more trials performed, but smaller overall duration
- in general.
-
- Next improvement is bisecting in logarithmic quantities,
- so that exit criteria can be independent of measurement units.
-
- Next improvement is basing the initial interval on receive rates.
-
- Final improvement is exiting early if the minimal value
- is not a valid lower bound.
-
- The complete search consist of several phases,
- each phase performing several trial measurements.
- Initial phase creates initial interval based on receive rates
- at maximum rate and at maximum receive rate (MRR).
- Final phase and preceding intermediate phases are performing
- external and internal search steps,
- each resulting interval is the starting point for the next phase.
- The resulting interval of final phase is the result of the whole algorithm.
-
- Each non-initial phase uses its own trial duration and width goal.
- Any non-initial phase stops searching (for NDR or PDR independently)
- when minimum is not a valid lower bound (at current duration),
- or all of the following is true:
- Both bounds are valid, bound bounds are measured at the current phase
- trial duration, interval width is less than the width goal
- for current phase.
