<p>A transport control method in a transmitter of a wireless communication system, which includes a transport layer having a congestion control function of transmitting data in a segment basis and retransmitting a segment if an RTO timer expires before receipt of an ACK segment is received in response to transmission of the segment and a MAC layer for detecting receipt of an ACK segment through a wireless link and transporting the detected ACK segment to the transport layer, includes temporarily storing received ACK segments in the MAC layer; detecting an average transmission rate of data segments; and transporting the stored ACK segments to the transport layer at the average transmission rate. Accordingly, by controlling an upward transport rate of a received ACK message by referring to an RTO value of a TCP in a MAC layer, unnecessary retransmission can be prevented by a congestion control function.</p> |
