contents A new congestion and delay control algorithm named QUIC Delay Control (QUIC-DC) is proposed for controlling not only congestion but also the queueing delay encountered along the forward communication path. The core idea is to estimate the one-way queueing delay of a connection to trigger an early reaction to congestion. This idea, along with a the TCP Westwood+ congestion control algorithm, has been implemented in QUIC-DC and compared with QUIC Cubic, BBRv2, NewReno, Westwood+. The results obtained in the emulated and real network environments show that QUIC-DC can significantly reduce packet losses along with end-to-end communication delays, while preserving network utilization, features that are both very useful for real-time applications.
