Performance Evaluation of the Stream Control Transmission Protocol
نویسنده
چکیده
A new protocol which could be used for the transport of telecommunication signalling messages over an IPbased network is currently being discussed within the IETF. The protocol is called Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). In this paper we shortly describe SCTP and an implementation of SCTP. Furthermore, we evaluate how the protocol performs in an wide area network, especially when competing with TCP. The results were obtained in a test-bed consisting of two local networks which are interconnected via an emulator of a wide area network.

Performance of TCP, UDP and SCTP on Sensor Network with Different Data Reporting Intervals
The performance of the congestion control algorithms of most of the reliable transport protocol of internet, particularly wireless networks and mobile ad-hoc networks, are not satisfactory under a high density sensor network applications, since they are designed mainly for wired networks and not for sensor networks. In this work, we evaluate the performance of some of the popular transport prot...
متن کاملPerformance evaluation of SCTP protocol for Smart Grid environment
Smart Grid Communication network will be a network of networks and with the obvious evolution and acceleration, it is crucial for its success to rely on a solid transmission protocol among its peripherals due to its real time streaming. The SCTP protocol, which was initially designed for transporting signaling messages over IP networks, is now an established in many modern applications. The mai...
متن کاملMobility Protocols for Handoff Management in Heterogeneous Networks
Future generation networks are expected to be a combination of several types of access technologies that vary in their characteristics. Efficient handoff management techniques are required to enable end-users to seamlessly access these networks as they roam across different geographic locations. We describe recent protocols (application, transport, and network) such as Mobile IP, Session Initia...
متن کاملEvaluation of SCTP Multistreaming over Satellite Links
The Stream Control Transmission Protocol has been developed as a reliable transport protocol to carry PSTN signaling messages over an IP network. Multistreaming is one of its powerful features to overcome some of the bottlenecks of single streamed protocols such as TCP. In this paper, we study the impact of multistreaming on the performance of SCTP over error prone satellite networks. We show t...
متن کاملThe design and evaluation of an end-to-end handoff management protocol
We introduce an efficient protocol for end-to-end handoff management in heterogeneous wireless IP-based networks. The protocol is based on the stream control transmission protocol (SCTP), and employs a soft-handoff mechanism that uses end-to-end semantics for signaling handoffs and for transmitting control messages. The design goal of this protocol is twofold—first, to reduce the home registrat...
