Congestions in many-to-many videoconferencing are usually caused by multiple senders. Judging the congestion links and determining the adjusting bit rate of senders which caused the congestions are the two issues in congestion control. In this paper, we propose one multicast congestion control scheme based on packets transmission model of shared multicast tree. The end-to-end packet loss rates are measured to get PLR matrix for judging congestion links via tomography method. The bit rates of senders which cause congestions are adjusted to implement congestion control according to the packet loss rate of congestion links with sender-fairness. Simulations and experiments show the scheme is valid and effective.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
