Abstract
A network device transmits data to a user equipment (UE) via a first Radio Access Network (RAN) using first Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) congestion control parameters. The network device receives a notification message indicating that the UE has moved from the first RAN to a second RAN, and modifies, responsive to receipt of the notification, the first TCP congestion control parameters to create second TCP congestion control parameters. The network device transmits data to the UE via the second RAN using the second TCP congestion control parameters.
