Explanation

Piggy backing is a technique for Flow control.

The receiver waits until its network layer passes in the next data packet. The delayed acknowledgement is then attached to this outgoing data frame. This technique of temporarily delaying the acknowledgement so that it can be hooked with next outgoing data frame is known as piggybacking.

Piggybacking is a technique used for efficient utilization of bandwidth. The acknowledgment for previous segment is sent along with the data request/transfer of current segment.
