Summary :

To accommodate best-effort multimedia Internet protocol (IP) connections in mobile environments, we introduced new criteria for TCP-friendliness and developed a control algorithm for the transient response and stability in the packet transmission rate. We improved the maximum throughput and QoS guaranteed congestion control algorithm (MAQS) by using these two solutions, and solved the following problems that Reno and conventional congestion control algorithms have: (1) network congestion cannot be avoided when the round-trip time (RTT) is short and the holding time is long, (2) the packet transmission rate of a long-RTT connection is small when it is multiplexed with short-RTT connections, (3) the packet transmission rate cannot be adjusted quickly when the channel capacity changes according to hand-off.
