With the rapid growth of the Internet, the importance of application traffic analysis increases for efficient network management. The statistical information in traffic flows, can be efficiently utilized for application traffic identification. However, the packet out-of-order and retransmission generated at the traffic collection point reduce the performance of the statistics-based traffic analysis. In this paper, we propose a novel method to detect and resolve the packet out-of-order and retransmission problem in order to improve completeness and accuracy of the traffic identification. To prove the feasibility of the proposed method, we applied our method to a real traffic analysis system using statistical flow information, and compared the performance of the system with the selected 9 popular applications. The experiment showed maximum 4.9% of completeness growth in traffic bytes, which shows that the proposed method contributes to the analysis of heavy flow.
