Improvement of AIMD algorithm considering multimedia transfer over internet
Liang Zhao, Yuanwei Jing, Georgi Marko Dimirovski · 2004
A TCP-friendly flow control algorithm is presented by adapting from AIMD algorithm, which not only provides basic flow congestion control for multimedia data traffic over Internet, but also fulfills the fairness between RTP flows and TCP flows. This algorithm mostly retains essential characteristics of AIMD. However, several important parameters involved in network communication is specially considered and properly introduced into the improved algorithm. All works done to AIMD algorithm can help smooth multimedia transfer and guarantee the fairness among TCP flows and RTP flows.
