Re: passive bandwidth estimation

I am more interested in getting an "Available Bandwidth" estimator. Due to
this available bandwidth, I am interested in congestion window. As whenever
congestion window goes to half it means the data rate has gone to its upper
limit. I want to use this particular property of congestion window to
calculate bandwidth.
Any idea how can one do bandwidth measurement based on this?

vern paxson did extensive work in this area.  van jacobson too.
