CCN/NDN (Content-Centric Networking/Named-Data Networking) is one of the most promising content-oriented network architectures. In CCN/NDN, forwarding information base (FIB) might have multiple entries for a same content name prefix, which means CCN/NDN potentially supports multi-source download. When a content is obtained from multiple sources, the technical knowledge obtained for congestion control in the current Internet cannot be simply applied. This is because in the current Internet, FIB is restricted to have only one entry for each IP address prefix, which causes quite different path feature from CCN/NDN. This paper proposes a new congestion control for CCN/NDN with multi-source content retrieval. The proposed congestion control is composed of end-to-end window flow control and router assisted Interest forwarding control, and enables transmission rate regulation only on a congested branch.
