An improved increase policy for dynamic window flow control
Kenneth J. Christensen, A.A. Nilsson · 2003
Dynamic window flow control is an extension to sliding window flow control. An improved increase policy for dynamic window flow control is developed and evaluated. The improved increase policy is named the jump policy for its ability to jump to a possibly optimum window size. The jump policy has a varying increase rate that is a function of the last window size at which a frame loss occurred. Over a variety of configurations, the jump policy yields a higher effective throughout when compared to existing linear and parabolic increase policies. A simulation study to validate the improvement of the jump policy is described.>
