Coupled Congestion Control for RTP Media
RFC 8699, “Coupled Congestion Control for RTP Media”, is an Experimental document published in January 2020 by S. Islam, M. Welzl, S. Gjessing. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
When multiple congestion-controlled Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) sessions traverse the same network bottleneck, combining their controls can improve the total on-the-wire behavior in terms of delay, loss, and fairness. This document describes such a method for flows that have the same sender, in a way that is as flexible and simple as possible while minimizing the number of changes needed to existing RTP applications. This document also specifies how to apply the method for the Network-Assisted Dynamic Adaptation (NADA) congestion control algorithm and provides suggestions on how to apply it to other congestion control algorithms.
What “Experimental” means
Describes a specification that is part of a research or development effort, published so the community can gain experience with it.
