| Abstract: | End-to-end TCP(transmission control protocol)congestion control can cause unfairness among multiple TCP connections with different RTT(Round Trip Time). The throughput of TCP connection is inversely proportional to its RTT.To resolve this problem,researchers have proposed many methods. The existing proposals for RTT-aware conditioner work well when congestion level is low. However,they over-protect long RTT flows and starve short RTT flows when congestion level is high. Due to this reason,an improved method based on adaptive thought is proposed. According to the congestion level of networks,the mechanism can adaptively adjust the degree of the protection to long RTT flows. Extensive simulation experiments showed that the proposed mechanism can guarantee the bandwidth fairness of TCP flows effectively and outperforms the existing methods. |
