This paper presents FeedC, a new method for RTT (Round Trip Time) calculus and feedback control for large scale multimedia transmissions. Simultaneous multimedia transmissions to a large number of users, such as IPTV, still have scale problems, due to the need of replicating the flow for each receiver on unicast. This can be avoided by using multicast; however, due to traffic equity rules on the Internet, the multicast flow must be equivalent to the TCP flow. To calculate this equivalent flow, there are several mechanisms; their cores are the RTT calculus and feedback control, using a different set of algorithms to feedback control and RTT calculation known of literature, added a method for cooperation of receivers in the same local network. This paper presents a new mechanism, and the results obtained from experiments on a real long distance network show it is the most efficient among the analyzed ones to a large number of receivers.
