路由器輔助的TCP擁塞控制技術設計隨著網路訊務流量的快速成長，如何妥善的用網路資源是一個成功的擁塞控制機制要面對的根本問題。TCP是網路上最廣為使用者使用的傳輸層協定，它有很多不同的版本被設計出來改進使用效能，TCP Reno、TCP Vegas 等。，大部的TCP 擁塞控制機制封包遺失控制，本研究TCP Muzha協定，藉由路由器，提供資訊給傳送端，在封包遺失便進行適度的傳輸速度控制，減少因為封包遺失所造成劇烈的傳輸速度下降，並可快達到傳輸速度。，，，，NS2平台實驗模擬，，，，，TCP Reno共存的環境下不因為TCP Reno侵略性的傳輸方式而降低過多的效能並保有較低的封包遺失率。 Design of TCP Congestion Control Techniques by Router-assisted Approach Abstract With the tremendous growth of Internet traffic, to utilize network resources efficiently is essential to a successful congestion control protocol. Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a widely used end-to-end transport protocol across the Internet. It has several enhencing versions (i.e. TCP Reno, TCP Vegas…) which intend to improve the drawbacks of the initial version of TCP. Most congestion control techniques use trial-and-error-based flow control to handle network congestion. In this paper, we propose a new method (TCP Muzha) that requires routers to feedback their status to the sender. Based on this information, the sender is able to adjust the sending data rate dynamically. Our approach can prevent data rate from decreasing dramatically due to packet loss. It can also help to increase the data rate quickly to where it supposes to be. Our design philosophy is to find out the bottleneck of the path, and its available bandwidth. Our goal is to increase network performance and avoid congestion by using the information obtained from the bottleneck. The design challenges are to determine which information is essential and how to use this information to dynamically adjust the data rate. We also propose the multi-level data rate adjustment method. Congestion can be avoided by dynamically adjusting data rate using this information. Finally, we use NS2 simulator to evaluate the performance of our approaches. The experiment results show that our method can avoid congestion before it actually happens, decrease packet-loss rate and increase the network utilization. In the fairness experime
