These days, the networks have exhibited HBDP (High Bandwidth Delay Product) characteristics. The legacy TCP slowly increases the size of the congestion window and drastically decreases the size of a congestion window. The legacy TCP has been found to be unsuitable for HBDP networks. TCP mechanisms for solving the problems of the legacy TCP can be categorized into the loss-based TCP and the delay-based TCP. Most of the TCP mechanisms use the standard slow start phase, which leads to a heavy packet loss event caused by the overshoot. Also, in the case of congestion avoidance, the loss-based TCP has shown problems of wastage in terms of the bandwidth and RTT (Round Trip Time) fairness. The delay-based TCP has shown a slow increase in speed and low occupancy of the bandwidth. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for improving the over shoot, increasing the speed of the bandwidth and overcoming the bandwidth occupancy and RTT fairness issues. By monitoring the buffer condition in the bottleneck link, the proposed scheme does congestion control and solves problems of slow start and congestion avoidance. By evaluating performance, we prove that our proposed scheme offers better performance in HBDP networks compared to the previous TCP mechanisms.

TCP does not ensure the bandwidth and delay bound required for multimedia streaming services in broadband wireless network environments. In this paper, we propose a new congestion control scheme for efficient multimedia transmission, called COLO TCP (Concave Increase Slow Start Logarithmic Increase Congestion Avoidance TCP). The COLO TCP prevents the burst packet loss by applying the concave increase algorithm in slow start phase. In the congestion avoidance phase, COLO TCP uses the logarithmic increase algorithm that quickly recovers congestion window after packet loss. To highly utilize network bandwidth and reduce packet loss ratio, COLO TCP uses additive increase algorithm and adaptive decrease algorithm. Through simulation results, we prove that our COLO TCP is more robust for random loss. It is also possible for efficient multimedia transmission.

Due to limited spectrum resources and differences in link loads, network congestion is one of the key issues in cognitive radio wireless mesh networks. In this letter, a congestion avoidance model with power control, channel allocation, and routing under the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio is presented. As a contribution, a nested optimization scheme combined with a genetic algorithm and linear programming solver is proposed. Extensive simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm.

인터넷상에서 화상전화를 구현할 경우, 대용량의 멀티미디어 데이터의 전송은 네트웍 congestion의 원인이 될 수 있다. 이러한 congestion이 일어날 경우, congestion avoidance 알고리즘을 적용하는 TCP 데이터는 스스로 전송률을 줄이게 되므로, congestion 정책을 사용하지 않는 UDP 패킷과 같은 데이터와 함께 전송될 경우, TCP 데이터에 불리하게 된다. 이때, UDP 패킷 데이터에 TCP와 유사한 방법의 congestion avoidance 알고리즘을 적용하여 이를 해결할 수 있는데, 이것은 TCP-friendly Adaptation 알고리즘이다. 본 논문에서는 인터넷 화상전화의 구현에 대해 기술하고 인터넷 환경에서 화성전화를 사용할 때에 congestion을 control 하기 위해서, 그 출력 대역폭을 네트웍 상태에 따라 TCP와 유사한 방식으로 조절하는 TCP-friendly Adaptation 알고리즘을 적용한다.

In wireless sensor networks, due to the many-to-one convergence of upstream traffic, congestion more probably appears. The existing congestion control protocols avoid congestion by controlling incoming traffic, but the duty-cycle operation of MAC(Medium Access Control) layer has not considered. In this paper, we propose DCA(Duty-cycle Based Congestion Avoidance), an energy efficient congestion control scheme using duty-cycle adjustment for wireless sensor networks. The DCA scheme uses both a resource control approach by increasing the packet reception rate of the receiving node and a traffic control approach by decreasing the packet transmission rate of the sending node for the congestion avoidance. Our results show that the DCA operates energy efficiently and achieves reliability by its congestion control scheme in duty-cycled wireless sensor networks.

Network Coding (NC) is an approach recently investigated for increasing the network throughput and thus enhancing the performance of wireless mesh networks. The benefits of NC can further be improved when routing decisions are made with the awareness of coding capabilities and opportunities. Typically, the goal of such routing is to find and exploit routes with new coding opportunities and thus further increase the network throughput. As shown in this paper, in case of proactive routing the coding awareness along with the information of the measured traffic coding success can also be efficiently used to support the congestion avoidance and enable more encoded packets, thus indirectly further increasing the network throughput. To this end, a new proactive routing procedure called Congestion-Avoidance Network Coding-Aware Routing (CANCAR) is proposed. It detects the currently most highly-loaded node and prevents it from saturation by diverting some of the least coded traffic flows to alternative routes, thus achieving even higher coding gain by the remaining well-coded traffic flows on the node. The simulation results confirm that the proposed proactive routing procedure combined with the well-known COPE NC avoids network congestion and provides higher coding gains, thus achieving significantly higher throughput and enabling higher traffic loads both in a representative regular network topology as well as in two synthetically generated random network topologies.

TCP, which performs congestion control in congestion condition, is able to help a reliable transmission. However, packet loss can be increased because congestion window is increased by the time the packet is dropped in the process of congestion avoidance. In this paper, to solve the above problem, we propose a new congestion estimation based TCP congestion control scheme using the weighted average value of the RTT. After measuring a SRTT, which means the weighted average value of RTTs, at this point of time when a buffer overflow is occurred by an overloaded packet, the proposed scheme estimates the time, when the same SRTT is made in packet transmission, as a congestion time and then decreases the congestion window. The simulation results show that the proposed schem has a good performance in terms of packet loss rate and throughput when the packet loss due to buffer overflow is larger than that due to wireless channel.

Wireless Sensor Network is an event-driven system that a large number of micro sensor nodes are collected, giving and Wing information. Congestion can take place easily since a great number of sensor nodes are sensing data and transferring them to sink nodes when an event occurs, comparing to the existing wired network. Current internet transport protocol is TCP/UDP, however, this is not proper for wireless sensor network event-driven ESRT, STCP and CODA are being studied for reliable data transport in the wireless sensor network. Congestion are being detected local buffer and channel loading with these techniques. Broadcasting is mainly used and can avoid congestion when one happens. The way that combining local buffer and channel loading information and detecting congestion is being studied in this paper. When congestion occurs, buffering state is divided into three in order to lessen the broadcasting sending the message on congestion control to the node having frequent channel loading. Thus they have advantage of decreasing network's loading.

End-to-end congestion control mechanism have been critical to the robustness and stability of the Internet. Most of today's Internet traffic is TCP, and we expect this to remain so in the future. TCP/IP is the intermediate transport layer candidate for today's applications. TCP uses an adaptive window-based flow control. The congestion avoidance and control algorithms deployed by TCP aims at using the available network bandwidth. This paper compares different congestion control policies, and proposes the new design mechanism for future public networks

Traditional TCP implementations have the under-utilization problem in large bandwidth delay product networks especially during the startup phase. In this paper, we propose a delay-based congestion control(DCC) mechanism to solve the problem. DCC is subdivided into linear and exponential growth phases. When there is no queueing delay, the congestion window grows exponentially during the congestion avoidance period. Otherwise, it maintains linear increase of congestion window similar to the legacy TCP congestion avoidance algorithm. The exponential increase phase such as the slow-start period in the legacy TCP can cause serious performance degradation by packet losses in case the buffer size is insufficient for the bandwidth-delay product, even though there is sufficient bandwidth. Thus, the DCC uses the RTT(Round Trip Time) status and the estimated queue size to prevent packet losses due to excessive transmission during the exponential growth phase. The simulation results show that the DCC algorithm significantly improves the TCP startup time and the throughput performance of TCP in large bandwidth delay product networks.
