Congestion control is among the fundamental problems of Internet multicast. It is an active research area with many challenges. In this study, an introduction to Internet congestion control and a brief literature survey of current multicast congestion control protocols is presented. Then two recently proposed &ldquo / single-rate, end-to-end, rate based&rdquo / class of protocols, namely LESBCC and TFMCC are evaluated with respect to their intersession fairness (TCP-friendliness), smoothness and responsiveness criteria. Throughout the experiments, which are conducted using a widely accepted network simulation tool &lsquo / ns&rsquo / , different topologies have been employed.
