This document specifies an update to the round-trip time (RTT)
estimation algorithm used for TFRC (TCP-Friendly Rate Control)
congestion control by the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol
(DCCP). It updates specifications for the CCID-3 and CCID-4
Congestion Control IDs of DCCP.
The update addresses parameter-estimation problems occurring with
TFRC-based DCCP congestion control. It uses a recommendation made in
the original TFRC specification to avoid the inherent problems of
receiver-based RTT sampling, by utilising higher-accuracy RTT samples
already available at the sender.
It is integrated into the feature set of DCCP as an end-to-end
negotiable extension. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
This document is a product of the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.
