There have been company researches for TCP-Westwood algorithms in wireless TCP environment with high packet loss rate. Because the TCP-Westwood algorithm adjusts the congestion window according to the ABE(Available Bandwidth Estimation), the algorithm has a problem which the accuracy of ABE decreases as the error rate increases. To solve such a problem, the proposed scheme in this paper adopts the existing packet pattern based algorithm that the ABE is ignored when the arriving interval time of ACK is longer than a given interval time and uses new algorithm that the ABE is reallocated to a given allowable ABE when the ABE is over the allowable range. The proposed scheme shows the simulation result that the ABE is closest to the setting bandwidth for simulation compared to the existing algorithms.
