Abstract :
FAST TCP is an important TCP congestion control algorithm for high-speed long-distance networks. But the overestimate of the round trip propagation delay in FAST TCP will cause unfairness. This paper proposes a new congestion control algorithm which regulates the window size using the packet marking probability of the router to overcome the unfairness of FAST TCP. The simulation results show that it can improve fairness. Its stability is also analyzed.
