Abstract
Upon receiving an acknowledgement after retransmission of a data segment, an acknowledgement number contained in the acknowledgement is compared with an acknowledgment number expected to be contained in an acknowledgement pertaining to the retransmitted data segment. When the former is larger than the latter, it is determined that the acknowledgement pertains to a data segment that was originally transmitted.
