Systems, devices, and methods of measuring directional latency and congestion in a communication network. A Uni-Directional Latency Determination Unit is connected in a communication network, located between an end-user device and a server. It monitors packets transported between the end-user device and the server, and it estimates a uni-directional latency of packet transport from the end-user device to the server or from the server to the end-user device. It utilizes a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Header and Timestamp Analyzer, to perform an analysis of data contained in timestamps of TCP packet headers of transported packets; and particularly, it analyzes data contained in a TSval field of such TCP packet headers. Congestion mitigation operations are accordingly deployed or activated.

Embodiments of this application describe a retransmission timeout (RTO) determining method and a related apparatus. The method includes a transmission device sending, to a network analyzer, a network throughput at which communication is performed through a first communication connection, where the network throughput is used by the network analyzer to determine an RTO corresponding to the first communication connection. The network analyzer obtains a first network throughput at which the transmission device performs communication through the first communication connection. The network analyzer calculates, based on the first network throughput, a first RTO corresponding to the first communication connection. The network analyzer sends the first RTO to the transmission device. The transmission device receives the first RTO sent by the network analyzer. The embodiments of this application help improve efficiency of retransmitting a lost data packet.
