An edge server receives a first request message for transmission to the host device. The edge server determines a first congestion control algorithm based on the first request message, including characteristics of the first request message. The edge server applies the first congestion control algorithm to the transport connection for application to the transmission of the first request message. Subsequently, the edge server receives a second request message for transmission to the host device over the transport connection. Based on the second request message, including characteristics of the second request message, the edge server determines and applies a second congestion control algorithm to the transport connection for application to the transmission of the second request message, wherein the second congestion control algorithm is different from the first congestion control algorithm

The present disclosure relates to a terminal using and a communication method thereof. In the communication method, the terminal receives at least one data segment from a sender and transmits at least one acknowledgment (ACK) segment corresponding to the at least one data segment to the sender. In addition, the terminal transmits a predetermined number of optimistic ACK segments corresponding to data segments to be received to the sender. Other embodiments are also possible.

A method of adaptive transmission time interval (TTI) tuning based on TCP information is proposed. First, a procedure for TCP information delivery between eNB and TCP sender/TCP receiver is disclosed. The TCP information comprises TCP status, TCP congestion window (CWND) size, TCP round trip delay, TCP SS threshold, TCP index, and TCP event indication. Second, various methods for eNB to configure TTI with UE TCP information and/or buffer information are disclosed. A first method is saturation detection which includes buffer status based saturation detection and CWND based saturation detection. A second method is Greedy Buffer Clearing. A third method is TCP state based TTI selection method.

The technologies disclosed herein provide improvements to the Low Extra Delay Background Transport (LEDBAT) protocol. In some scenarios, a LEDBAT connection cannot obtain accurate measurements for the base delay that it relies on. Slowing down a connection, initially and periodically, can ensure that base delay measurements begin accurately and remain accurate throughout the life of a connection. Data is communicated between two computers in a slow start mode, where a rate of the communication is increased over time from an initial rate. When one or more conditions are met, e.g., an interval lapses, the communication is slowed for a predetermined time period. The communication of the data then resumes in a slow start mode, where a rate of the communication is increased over time from an initial rate.

A method of delivering media content over a network, the media content including a plurality of temporal segments, wherein each temporal segment comprises a plurality of data packets, the method including: selecting an initial size of a first congestion window; delivering the plurality of data packets of a first segment using the first congestion window, the initial size of the first congestion window being used to control the size of the first congestion window for the duration of the first segment delivery; measuring the packet loss during the delivery of the first segment; determining an initial size of a second congestion window in dependence on the measured packet loss for the first segment; and delivering a second segment using the second congestion window, the initial size of the second congestion window being used to control the size of the second congestion window for the duration of the second segment delivery.

A method for detecting a section where congestion occurs in a data transmission path by a user equipment (UE) comprises receiving a first probe packet, receiving a second probe packet, measuring an interval in time of reception between the first probe packet and the second probe packet, determining whether the measured time interval exceeds a threshold, and determining whether a bottleneck occurs using a result of the determination and information contained in the probe packets, wherein the information contained in the probe packets is information about the time interval between the probe packets and transmission rates of load packets.

A packet transmission method and related apparatus are disclosed. A transmit end retransmits a first packet to a receive end and decreases a congestion window and a slow start threshold upon determining that the first packet has been lost. The receive end sends an ACK in response to the retransmitted first packet to the transmit end on receipt of the retransmitted first packet for the first time, where the ACK contains a proactively constructed DSACK option for informing the transmit end that the first packet has been received repeatedly. The transmit end therefore compensates the congestion window and/or the slow start threshold.

In the communication method, the terminal receives at least one data segment from a sender and transmits at least one acknowledgment (ACK) segment corresponding to the at least one data segment to the sender.
