Ece901 : Mobile Communications Empirical Study of Tcp Vegas over Wireless with Link Layer Recovery
نویسنده
چکیده
TCP Vegas has been receiving much attention recently due to its superior performance over TCP Reno in wireline networks. However, no study has been conducted on how TCP Vegas will perform over wireless networks where TCP performs poorly. In this study, we compare the link utilization of single TCP Vegas and TCP Reno connection over wireless link with Link Layer Recovery mechanism. We show that TCP Vegas connection achieve higher link utilization in most cases. In addition, some interesting issues of using TCP over Rayleigh fading channel will be discussed.

Performance evaluation of TCP algorithms in multi-hop wireless packet networks
Wireless packet ad hoc networks are characterized by multi-hop wireless connectivity and limited bandwidth competed among neighboring nodes. In this paper, we investigate and evaluate the performance of several prevalent TCP algorithms in this kind of network over the wireless LAN standard IEEE 802.11 MAC layer. After extensively comparing the existing TCP versions (including Tahoe, Reno, New R...

This paper, therefore, investigated the impact of d...
متن کاملSnug-Vegas and Snug-Reno: efficient mechanisms for performance improvement of TCP over heterogeneous networks
Improving the performance of the traditional TCP in wireless IP communications has been an active research area. The significant cause of packet losses in such heterogenous networks is no longer limited to network congestion. The performance degradation of TCP in wireless and wired-wireless hybrid networks is mainly due to its lack of ability to differentiate the packet losses caused by network...
متن کاملDiagnosing Wireless TCP Performance Problems: A Case Study
Researchers have long realized that TCP performance degrades over wireless links. Many solutions, including link-layer error recovery, have been proposed to overcome this problem. This paper studies how these solutions perform in a wireless LAN network environment. The experiments are conducted using off-the-shelf products, in a controlled way. In particular, we focus on Linux 2.4 TCP performan...
