Abstract
The invention relates to a method for managing a data connection between a sending network component and a receiving network component via a network, and a network component, the method comprising the following steps: sending an initiating message to the receiving network component by the sending network component, to initiate a data connection between the sending network component and the receiving network component; receiving the initiating message by the receiving network component; sending further messages to the receiving network component by the sending network component; receiving the further messages by the receiving network component; calculating a transmission delay for at least one of the further messages received by the receiving network component; estimating optimal transmission parameters for transmitting messages between the sending network component and the receiving network component based on the calculated transmission delay, wherein estimating of the optimal transmission parameters substantially excludes the initiating message; and sending subsequent messages to the receiving network component by the sending network component at the estimated optimal transmission…
