چکیده

TCP congestion control has been the subject of significant research for more than two decades. Various algorithms including TCP Tahoe, TCP Reno. TCP NewReno. SACK. FACK. and their variations have been proposed to overcome the problem of network congestion and increase network utilizmion. The TCP Vegas algorithm has been extensively debated in recent years. TCP Vegas' behavior in the presence of competing TCP Reno connections has been the main barrier to its deployment. This paper studies TCP Vegas and investigates why it is less aggressive than TCP Reno in mixed configurations. Simularion experiments have been carried out to demonstrate the problems with the deployment ofTCP Vegas in the operational Internet.

Analysis and Improvement of Fairness between TCP Reno and Vegas for Deployment of TCP Vegas to the Internet

According to the past researches, a TCP Vegas version is able to achieve higher throughput than TCP Tahoe and Reno versions, which are widely used in the current Internet. However, we need to consider a migration path for TCP Vegas to be deployed in the Internet. By focusing on the situation where TCP Reno and Vegas connections share the bottleneck link, we investigate the fairness between two ...

Performance of TCP Vegas, Bic and Reno Congestion Control Algorithms on Iridium Satellite Constellations

Satellite networking is different from wired or wireless networks. The behavior and the performance of TCP/IP in normal wireless network as well as in wired network are different from one another. The TCP/IP protocol was not designed to perform well over high-latency or noisy channels so its performance over satellite networks are totally different. Each satellite networks/constellations have d...
