A method for congestion control in a data communication protocol employing acknowledged communication may include measuring a flight size. A transmission rate may be measured. A trend of the flight size may be determined. A trend of the transmission rate may be determined, and the trend may be derived from a transmission rate gradient calculation, in which either the transmission rate measurements or the transmission rate gradient calculations or both may be filtered to reduce their temporal variability. Whether there is a congestion may be detected according to the determined trend of the transmission rate and the trend of the flight size. Upon detection of the congestion, a change may be made from a current congestion control state to a new congestion control state. Data may be transmitted while respecting a maximum amount of unacknowledged data which the transmitting node may transmit. An apparatus is also disclosed.
A non-transitory computer readable medium for congestion control in a data communication protocol employing acknowledged communication in which a transmitting node transmits data to a receiving node and the receiving node acknowledges receipt of the data, the non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
