Abstract
A method for communication includes transmitting data packets from a communication device to a network. Upon receiving in the communication device a congestion notification from the network, a rate of transmission of the data packets from the communication device to the network is reduced. While transmitting the data packets, after reducing the rate of transmission, the rate of transmission is increased incrementally when a predefined volume of data has been transmitted since having made a previous change in the rate of transmission.
