“…The LEDBAT [5], which works on top of the TCP protocol, is a delay-based congestion avoidance mechanism installed at end-hosts. Similarly, RAPID [6], ImTCPbg [7] and NF-TCP [14] leverage the round-trip time (RTT) estimated at UEs to adjust the sending rates of the corresponding TCP flows. The disadvantage of these methods is that they must be deployed at individual UEs, which is operationally impractical.…”

“…Some studies have proposed user-friendly methods for BG and FG traffic control where the TCP stack is modified and UEs recognise network conditions to modify the sending rate of BG and FG traffic, accordingly [5][6][7]. The advantage of this method is that UEs can consciously adjust the sending rate of different traffic types based on a priority policy provided in advance.…”

“…When multiple peers hold the same resource in a P2P network, we can use network bandwidth information to choose a peer to retrieve the resource from. In a CDN, we can transfer data at low priority on the basis of bandwidth information so as not to affect high priority data transfer [5]. Network bandwidth information can also be used for the determination of the failure point in a network.…”

We propose a method to measure available network bandwidth using the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP). The recently proposed ImTCP technique uses Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) data packets and the corresponding acknowledgement responses to measure the available bandwidth between sender and receiver. Since ImTCP needs to change the sender's TCP implementation, it needs modifications to sender's operating system kernel. Moreover, ImTCP cannot measure available bandwidth accurately if the receiver sends delayed acknowledgments. These problems stem from the use of TCP. In this paper, we discuss an ICMP-based method that overcomes these limitations. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method in an experimental network and show that it generates less measurement traffic and requires less time for bandwidth measurement than PathLoad. We also show that proposed method can measure the available bandwidth even if the bandwidth changes during measurement.Index Terms-available bandwidth, bandwidth measurement, Inline measurement TCP (ImTCP)

“…Our research group has previously proposed a congestion control mechanism based on a logistic equation and a Lotka-Volterra competition model (Hasegawa and Murata, 2006), by which TCP can fully utilise the bandwidth when the available bandwidth and capacity of the network path are provided. We have also proposed a new TCP version that sets the upper limit of the congestion window based on the results of the inline network measurement (Tsugawa et al, 2006). In this case, TCP can provide background data transfer without affecting the foreground traffic, whereas previous methods cannot avoid network congestion essentially.…”

We introduce an inline measurement method that can overcome difficulties in measurement task in high-speed network environment, such as short packet transmission intervals and Interrupt Coalescence function deployed in the high-speed Network Interface Cards. The method adjusts the number of packets involved in a packet burst of an active TCP connection, and utilises the inter-intervals of the bursts of the corresponding ACK packets for bandwidth measurement. Experiment results show that the proposed inline measurement method can measure the bandwidth in the network paths at least 1-Gbps or higher.
