ack frequency #11

Open marcblanchet opened 10 months ago

marcblanchet commented 10 months ago

draft-ietf-quic-ack-frequency seems pretty relevant to what we are doing. Might want to say something about it

huitema commented 9 months ago

Already implemented and used in the trials. Does considerably reduce the ACK overhead in our case.

marcblanchet commented 9 months ago

should say a word on this in the draft: should highly consider implementing ack-frequency and also provide some hints on how to properly set the values.

huitema commented 9 months ago

We could, but the parameters are mostly the same as for terrestrial network -- the time between ACK is set as a fraction of the RTT, the number of packets set as fraction of the CWIN, so it adapts automatically.
