This paper provides an analysis of the source policy in the rate-based
congestion control scheme developed by the asynchronous transfer mode
(ATM) Forum for available bit rate ser,ice and derives approximate an
alytical closed-form expressions to describe the rate increase process
. These approximations are used to analyze the impact of the source al
gorithm on the TCP slow-start process operating over a rate-controlled
ATM network. The results show that the increase in TCP congestion win
dow ramp-up time is noticeable when the round-trip delay is small. The
results are verified by simulation.
