Abstract:
1. A method for controlling data transmission by a transmission device in a wired transmission section in a wireless communication network, the method comprising: receiving congestion status information from a reception device; determining whether a congestion status in the wired transmission section corresponds to an occurrence of a new congestion status or a maintenance of an existing congestion status based on the received congestion status information; reducing a throughput of data being transmitted to the reception device through the wired transmission section in response to the congestion status in the wired transmission section corresponding to the new congestion status; determining whether the existing congestion status in the wired transmission section is maintained for a first predetermined time in response to the congestion status in the wired transmission section corresponding to the maintenance of the existing congestion status; reducing the throughput of the data being transmitted to the reception device through the wired transmission section in response to the existing congestion status being maintained for the first predetermined time; and increasing the throughput of the data being transmitted to the reception device through the wired transmission section in response to a non-occurrence, of the new congestion status and existing congestion status, maintained for a second predetermined time, wherein a cause of the new congestion status is different from a cause of the existing congestion status.
