This article presents a novel approach to ATM congestion control for ABR (Allowed Bit Rate) service. This approach can achieve a desired fair link utilization using adaptive filters to prevent both network collapse and the 'beat down' problem.

Congestion control is very important for e!ective and stable operation of ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) networks. Owing to the bursty and unpredictable characteristic of data network tra$c, its congestion control is particularly a challenge for network researchers and designers. The ATM Forum has
In this article we describe an improved rate-based congestion control scheme for Available Bit Rate (ABR) service in ATM networks. The analytical results are presented and the characteristics of the designed scheme are illustrated by using simulation results.
A rate-based congestion control algorithm has been developed and standardized in the ATM forum for ABR service class. In the standard the behaviour of source and destination end systems is specified by several control parameters such as RIF (rate increase factor) and RDF (rate decrease factor). In s
