Abstract

This paper introduces a new congestion control scheme improving performance of the future broadband satellite networks. The proposed scheme regulates the data rate based on the buffer information sent by the satellite in periodic manner. The complexity of the proposed scheme is comparable with the existing flow control techniques, as it does not require the additional information exchange with the satellite. The throughput and the satellite queue size performances of the proposed scheme are mathematically analyzed. The results show the significant improvement in the proposed scheme comparing with the conventional window-based and rate-based congestion control techniques.
