# Introduction

This document describes a QUIC extension for an endpoint to control its peer's
delaying of acknowledgments.
The {{Section 13.2 of QUIC-TRANSPORT}} recommends to send an ACK frame
after receiving at least two ack-eliciting packets but leaves the determination
of how frequently to send acknowledgments in response to ack-eliciting packets
to the data receiver without any ability for the data sender to impact this
behavior. This document specifies a QUIC extension for an endpoint to
request its peer to change its behavior in sending or delaying of acknowledgments.

This document defines a new transport parameter to announce the support of this
extension and specifies two new frame types to request changes the peer's
acknowledgement behavior.
