METHOD OF CONTROLLING CONGESTION, APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING CONGESTION AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

Provided herein is a method of controlling a congestion in a communication scheme using a lower layer that performs a first congestion control and an upper layer that performs a second congestion control different from the first congestion control. The method includes detecting a congestion in the lower layer, notifying, from the lower layer to upper layer, the occurrence of the congestion and congestion control information related to the congestion; and setting, in the upper layer, an output rate for each of at least one congestion-related upper-layer session that is processed in the upper layer and is related to the congestion. Also provided is an apparatus for controlling congestion, a communication system, and a non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a congestion control program.

1. A method of controlling a congestion in a communication scheme using a lower layer that performs a first congestion control and an upper layer that performs a second congestion control different from the first congestion control, the method comprising:
detecting a congestion in the lower layer; notifying, from the lower layer to upper layer, the occurrence of the congestion and congestion control information related to the congestion; and setting, in the upper layer, an output rate for each of at least one congestion-related upper-layer session that is processed in the upper layer and is related to the congestion.
