<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent useless retransmission by paying attention to a relation of a retransmission request to actually performed transmission and appropriately controlling time-out period in retransmission control by a TCP. <P>SOLUTION: In data packet transmission and reception by a transmitter Tn and a receiver Rn through a communication network NW, when there is retransmission by fast retransmit, the transmitter Tn then adjusts a time-out period of an unacknowledged data packet each time a duplicate ACK packet is received. In adjusting of the time-out period, the maximum increase amount of the time-out period at that time is added to a time-out period during clocking. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT</p> |
