Description

The author proposes a flow control scheme which derives the optimal packet transmission rate from the ACKs of the sending packets. The optimization is based on mathematical programming such as the extremal method and least-squares method. The author proves that the proposed method is fair when the RTT and the packet length of each sender are the same. It is also shown that the sufficient condition for the proposed method to be optimal and stable generally holds true in packet networks. The performances are examined by computer simulations, and it is found that high throughput is obtained regardless of the network structure.
