Abstract

Methods and apparatuses for controlling transmission control protocol (TCP) send buffers in communication systems are provided. The method includes identifying a current round-trip time (RTT) value and a minimum RTT value in the TCP and adjusting a size of the send buffer based on at least one of a current operation, the current RTT value, and the minimum RTT value in a congestion control scheme according to the TCP.
