By the introduction of all IP networks with the smart homes, smart phones, car multimedia systems wearable technologies and IP TV’s, the number of internet related devices and the number of applications have increased. This has generated an increased quantity of bandwidth usage in packet switching networks. Therefore, the betterment of the bandwidth usage and the system performance has become more significant. Thus, there is a large number of works in the literature attempting to improve the network performance. For this purpose, generally the modifications of used methods in the network structures are preferred, rather than making major hardware based modifications requiring more financial support. In this work, a novel method called Return Back to threshold (RBT) is proposed to be applied to packet switched networks for a better congestion control.
