The reasons and influence of receive buffer blocking in Concurrent Multipath Transfer (CMT) environment are studied. A modeling method which is suitable for analyzing the throughput of CMT is also proposed. This model can be used to estimate the throughput according to the drop rate
round trip time and other parameters. It considers whether the fast retransmission is applied and the relationship between the size of congestion window and the volumes of receive buffer. Comparing with the simulation results
the model can predict the variation of throughput very well when the parameters of network are changed.
