Abstract
A method for controlling congestion of traffic, by one of one or more User Terminals (UTs), traversing an intermediate node, the method comprising: associating one or more traffic flows of a priority to one of the one or more UTs; detecting a traffic congestion for the priority; performing Random Early Detection (RED) congestion control for the priority to relieve the traffic congestion; selecting, for the priority, a User Terminal (UT) with a perceived delay greater than a high threshold; and controlling, by priority, the traffic flows associated with the selected UT.
