Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for communications are described. One or more flows between a node and one or more other nodes in a communication network may be monitored over a time period. During the monitoring, it may be identified that, during a subset of the time period, communications over at least one of the flows were restricted by the communication network based on receiving at least one indicator of congestion for the at least one flow. A quantity of traffic communicated over the one or more flows during the subset of the time period may then be determined, and respective flow rates of the one or more flows may be obtained. The obtained flow rates may be used to calculate a data rate of one or more connections between the node and the one or more other nodes.
