Abstract

Network calculus has successfully been applied to derive performance bounds for communication networks, whereas a number of issues still remain unsolved or are not well understood yet. Founded on min-plus convolution and de-convolution, network calculus obeys a strong analogy to system theory. However, system theory has been extended beyond the time domain, applying the Fourier transform and allowing for an efficient analysis in the frequency domain. A corresponding dual domain for network calculus has not been elaborated, so far. In this paper we show that in analogy to system theory such a dual domain for network calculus is given by convex/concave conjugates referred to also as Legendre transform. We provide solutions for dual operations and show that min-plus convolution and de-convolution become simple addition and subtraction in Legendre space.
