Abstract
A method for data communication between a first node and a second node over a data path includes forming one or more redundancy messages from data messages at the first node using an error correcting code and transmitting messages from the first node to the second node. The transmitted first messages include the data messages and the redundancy messages. The method includes, receiving, at the first node, second messages indicative of a rate of arrival at the second node of the messages transmitted from the first node, and of successful and unsuccessful delivery of the first messages transmitted from the first node to the second node. A first transmission limit and a second transmission limit are maintained according to the received second messages. Transmission of additional messages from the first node to the second node is limited according to the first and the second transmission limits.
