Network Congestion Control

Congestion control in networks refers to the process of dynamically adjusting the rate of data transmission through a series of algorithms and technical means to prevent network resource overload and performance degradation. Its primary goal is to ensure the stability and efficiency of the network, optimize packet transmission delay and packet loss rate, and enhance user experience. In network communication, congestion control can effectively manage bandwidth resources and avoid service quality deterioration caused by congestion, which is crucial for ensuring the normal operation of critical services.
