With the rapid growth of rate-based services and wireless applications,improving Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) congestion control has been becoming more important in the network research field. This paper first briefly introduces the Additive-Increase Multiplicative-Decrease (AIMD) (a,b) algorithm,and then presents an improved TCP congestion control mechanism (D-AIMD) whose principles and simulation results are discussed in detail. This mechanism can be easily implemented with lower additional overheads and can efficiently improve network performance.
