Transport Layer 3-* TCP Slow Start When connection begins, CongWin = 1 MSS Example: MSS = 500 bytes RTT = 200 msec initial rate = 20 kbps available bandwidth may be MSS/RTT desirable to quickly ramp up to respectable rate When connection begins, increase rate exponentially fast until first loss event Transport Layer 3-* TCP Slow Start (more) When connection begins, increase rate exponentially until first loss event: double CongWin every RTT done by incrementing CongWin for every ACK received Summary: initial rate is slow but ramps up exponentially fast Host A one segment RTT Host B time tw
