The passage around this formula
…the single congestion bit ordinary TCP effectively gets from a drop [ 14 ] . The practical mechanism is a threshold rule applied at each switch queue: writing Q for the queue’s occupancy sampled at a packet’s arrival and K for a fixed marking threshold, the switch’s marking decision m is . so the sender receives, over many packets, a running estimate of what fraction of its recent traffic found the queue already over threshold — a proportional read on the severity of congestion rather than a…
