A method and apparatus for controlling a TCP congestion window size for data sent from a TCP sending node in a communications network towards a TCP receiving node via a Radio Access Network. The TCP sending node determines a minimum required bit rate for a data stream sent towards the TCP receiving node. It then determines that a sending bit rate of the data stream must be reduced using a TCP congestion avoidance mechanism. When the congestion avoidance mechanism is applied, the congestion window size is adjusted such that the sending bit rate is no lower than the minimum required bit rate. 119-. (canceled)20. A method of controlling a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) congestion window size for data sent from a TCP sending node in a communications network towards a TCP receiving node via a Radio Access Network , the method comprising the TCP sending node:determining a minimum required bit rate for a data stream sent towards the TCP receiving node;determining that a sending bit rate of the data stream must be reduced using a TCP congestion avoidance mechanism; andapplying the congestion avoidance mechanism to adjust the congestion window size such that the sending bit rate is no lower than the minimum required bit rate.21. The method of claim 20 , further comprising the TCP sending node determining the minimum required bit rate based on the type of data.22. The method of claim 21 , further comprising the TCP sending node determining the type of data by performing a packet inspection on a data packet.23. The method of claim 22 , wherein the packet inspection is selected from any of header classification claim 22 , shallow inspection claim 22 , deep packet inspection claim 22 , and heuristic analysis.24. The method of claim 20 , further comprising the TCP sending node receiving a message from a network analysis node claim 20 , the message including the minimum required bit rate.25. The method of claim 20 , further comprising sending a further message towards a node ...
