More Information
Summary:Embodiments can provide a system comprising a memory (104) for storing a previous target injection rate representing a rate at which data packets are to be transmitted along a network path. The system can further comprise a processor (102) coupled to the memory and programmed to calculate a raw injection rate based on the previous target injection rate, a latency ratio representing a queuing delay, and a minimum injection rate; and calculate a current target injection rate by combining the previous target injection rate and the raw injection rate as a weighted average using a responsiveness parameter that represents a weight to apply to the raw injection rate. The system can further comprise a communication interface (112) configured to transmit a plurality of data packets along the network path based on the current target injection rate.
