- TCP-Friendly Rate Control With Token Bucket for VoIP Congestion Control
- TCP Friendly Rate Control TFRC is a congestion control algorithm that provides a smooth transmission rate for real-time network applications. TFRC refrains from halving the sending rate on every packet drop; instead it is adjusted as a function of the loss rate during a single round trip time. TFRC has...
