Abstract

A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus stores data packets in a buffer. In addition, the apparatus determines a delay of at least one data packet of the data packets in the buffer. Furthermore, the apparatus controls a TCP data flow rate based on the determined delay. The apparatus may also store ACKs in a second buffer and drop an ACK of the stored ACKs when one of a number of stored ACKs is greater than a first threshold or a size of the stored ACKs is greater than a second threshold.
