Re: [dccp] minimal sending rate in the case of tfrc for small packetsand its faster restart variant

2006-05-10 Thread Arjuna Sathiaseelan
It appears that the first data packet sent after exiting the idleness state will determine the receiver to respond with a feedback, containing a quite low value of X_recv (the number of bytes received is divided by the entire duration of the idleness period, or the duration since the last feedbac

pect the nofeedback timer to cause the connection to leave slow start, but I'm not sure what the resulting max transmit rate would be. Normally it'd be half the rate in the last RTT, but that was zero in this case, since the app went idle. Sounds worth investigating... Tom P. >

I would like to add something here..Its a doubt.. I am wondering what happens where there is an idle period during slow start where the nofeedback timer has expired - with p = 0. Faster restart wouldnt work with the given algorithm - since it doesnt make any changes to the existing TFRC slow star

Dear Tai, I have not been working on CCID 2..So I am not sure about your questions..But I am not sure whether DCCP would have better throughput compared to SACK - since it depends on how u calculate ur throughput..As throughput is the total no of bytes transmitted in unit time, this includes the
