Abstract
Congestion occurs at a bottleneck along an Internet path; multiple flows between the same sender and receiver pairs can benefit from using only a single congestion control instance when they share the same bottleneck. These benefits include the ability to control the rate allocation between flows and reduced overall delay (multiple congestion control instances cause more queuing delay than one since each has no knowledge of the congestion episodes experienced by the others). We present a mechanism for coupling congestion control for real-time media and show its benefits by coupling multiple congestion controlled flows that share the same bottleneck.

Congestion control using FEC for conversational multimedia communication
MMSys '14: Proceedings of the 5th ACM Multimedia Systems ConferenceIn this paper, we propose a new rate control algorithm for conversational multimedia flows. In our approach, along with Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) media packets, we propose sending redundant packets to probe for available bandwidth. These ...
