A method and an apparatus that improves a data transmission rate in a TCP connection having an asymmetrical path. An intermediate node transmits a predetermined number k of data packets to a destination node, and measures a time period A between transmitting the k data packets and receiving a receipt acknowledgment signal at the intermediate node indicating receipt of the k data packets at the destination node. The intermediate node then transmits to a source node k acknowledgement signals with a time interval of A/k between each acknowledgement signal.

L'invention est constituée par une méthode et un appareil qui améliorent le débit de transmission des données dans une connexion TCP à trajet asymétrique. Un noeud intermédiaire transmet un nombre prédéterminé k de paquets de données à un noeud de destination et mesure la période de temps A entre la transmission de ces k paquets de données et la réception d'un signal d'accusé de réception au noeud intermédiaire indiquant la réception des k données de paquets au noeud de destination. Le noeud intermédiaire transmet alors au noeud source k signaux d'accusé de réception espacés les uns des autres d'un intervalle de temps A/k.
