+ BIC-TCP is a sender-side only change that ensures a linear RTT
+ fairness under large windows while offering both scalability and
+ bounded TCP-friendliness. The protocol combines two schemes
+ called additive increase and binary search increase. When the
+ congestion window is large, additive increase with a large
+ increment ensures linear RTT fairness as well as good
+ scalability. Under small congestion windows, binary search
+ increase provides TCP friendliness.

+ default m
+ ---help---
+ TCP Westwood+ is a sender-side only modification of the TCP Reno
+ protocol stack that optimizes the performance of TCP congestion
+ control. It is based on end-to-end bandwidth estimation to set
+ congestion window and slow start threshold after a congestion
+ episode. Using this estimation, TCP Westwood+ adaptively sets a
+ slow start threshold and a congestion window which takes into
+ account the bandwidth used at the time congestion is experienced.
+ TCP Westwood+ significantly increases fairness wrt TCP Reno in
+ wired networks and throughput over wireless links.

+ ---help---
+ H-TCP is a send-side only modifications of the TCP Reno
+ protocol stack that optimizes the performance of TCP
+ congestion control for high speed network links. It uses a
+ modeswitch to change the alpha and beta parameters of TCP Reno
+ based on network conditions and in a way so as to be fair with
+ other Reno and H-TCP flows.

+ Sally Floyd's High Speed TCP (RFC 3649) congestion control.
+ A modification to TCP's congestion control mechanism for use

+ depends on EXPERIMENTAL

+ ---help---
+ TCP-Hybla is a sender-side only change that eliminates penalization of
+ long-RTT, large-bandwidth connections, like when satellite legs are
+ involved, expecially when sharing a common bottleneck with normal
+ terrestrial connections.

+config TCP_CONG_VEGAS
+ tristate "TCP Vegas"
+ depends on EXPERIMENTAL
+ default n
+ ---help---
+ TCP Vegas is a sender-side only change to TCP that anticipates
+ the onset of congestion by estimating the bandwidth. TCP Vegas
+ adjusts the sending rate by modifying the congestion
+ window. TCP Vegas should provide less packet loss, but it is
+ not as aggressive as TCP Reno.
+
+config TCP_CONG_SCALABLE
+ tristate "Scalable TCP"
+ depends on EXPERIMENTAL
+ default n
+ ---help---
+ Scalable TCP is a sender-side only change to TCP which uses a
+ MIMD congestion control algorithm which has some nice scaling
+ properties, though is known to have fairness issues.
