The IESG has received a request from the RTP Media Congestion Avoidance Techniques WG (rmcat) to consider the following document: - 'Coupled congestion control for RTP media' <draft-ietf-rmcat-coupled-cc-06.txt> as Experimental RFC
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2017-08-28. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract When multiple congestion controlled 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 amount of changes needed to existing RTP applications. It specifies how to apply the method for the NADA congestion control algorithm, and provides suggestions on how to apply it to other congestion control algorithms. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rmcat-coupled-cc/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rmcat-coupled-cc/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
