Abstract :
A window control theme in TCP over ABR service is proposed. In this scheme, the TCP congestion window size is determined by explicit rate (ER) values, representing the degree of network congestion. Simulation results show an improvement in TCP throughput, reducing the transmissions as well as effectively utilising the bandwidth available to a given TCP connection
