The delay behind the head can be implemented by dividing the The delay behind the head can be implemented by dividing the
backlog at dequeue by the link rate or equivalently multiplying backlog at dequeue by the link rate or equivalently multiplying
the backlog by the delay per unit of backlog. The implementation the backlog by the delay per unit of backlog. The implementation
