Abstract
A congestion control method and an apparatus are disclosed. The method includes: after a sending device generates an unscheduled data packet of a first flow, if it is determined, based on an unscheduled packet send window shared by all flows, that the unscheduled data packet meets a sending condition, determining whether to request to add a quota for at least one of the unscheduled packet send window and a scheduled packet send window corresponding to the first flow; and if it is determined that the quota is requested to be added for the at least one of the unscheduled packet send window and the scheduled packet send window corresponding to the first flow, setting indication information in the unscheduled data packet, and sending, to a receiving device, the unscheduled data packet in which the indication information is set.
