CA 2242216
A packet switching apparatus is disclosed which is adapted to determine and control an allowed transmission rate of a transmitting terminal in a packet switching network. The packet switching apparatus comprises a rate discriminator for monitoring an interval of packet reception for each transmitting terminal connected in a packet switching network, and judging, based on the interval of packet reception, whether the transmitting terminal having sent the packet is in pause of transmission and determining a first allowed transmission rate for the transmitting terminal corresponding to a result of the judgment, an Explicit Rate (ER) calculator to calculate, based on a predetermined algorithm, a second allowed transmission rate for the transmitting terminal, and an ER setter to select the smaller of the first allowed transmission rate determined by the rate discriminator and second allowed transmission rate calculated by the ER calculator, and write it into a packet returned to the transmitting terminal.
