A method and an apparatus for controlling congestion of a wireless multi-hop network are disclosed herein. Through this method and apparatus, data packets are transmitted from a fixed host to a mobile base station and from the mobile base station to a mobile host via a wireless path. A local retransmission by the mobile base station is performed according to the wireless path state information after packet(s) is not correctly received by the mobile host, and the retransmission is notified to the fixed host, thus avoiding futile retransmission of the lost packet by the fixed host. The state of the wireless path is marked as available or unavailable or congested or error according to the path information. If the state of the wireless path is not marked as unavailable, the local retransmission is performed at a high priority in response to a first Dup Ack packet received from the mobile host. |
