Abstract :
In this paper, an innovative TCP flow control method is presented. An algorithm is proposed that combines RED (Random Early Detection) with TCP window adjustment to improve the network performance. Leveraging the advantages of RED and window adjustment, the algorithm demonstrates fast response and superior stability with controlled packet dropping rate, while still fully utilizing the network resource. A novel analytical model based on the discrete Markov process is also provided. Analysis and simulation show the effectiveness and robustness of the algorithm. This method is simple and easy to use.
