Sctp Congestion Control Performance in Wireless Multi-hop Networks*

چکیده
Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is originally designed for signaling transport over IP-based networks in the Signaling Transport (SIGTRAN) group of IETF and it has the potential to be an alternative transport protocol that may be better able to satisfy the requirements of future battlefield network than traditional protocols, TCP and UDP. SCTP performance over IEEE 802.11 is being evaluated in this paper. The impact of various IEEE 802.11 parameters on SCTP congestion control parameters is simulated and their effect on throughput as well as its performance is studied. Further more, a new algorithm is proposed to overcome the “small window syndrome” resulting from the MAC layer when the SCTP receiver side window is small. Simulation results demonstrate that SCTP performance is improved using this new algorithm.

Many performance evaluations for IEEE 802.11distributed coordination function (DCF) have been previouslyreported in the literature. Some of them have clearly indicatedthat 802.11 MAC protocol has poor performance in multi-hopwireless ad hoc networks due to exposed and hidden nodeproblems. Although RTS/CTS transmission scheme mitigatesthese phenomena, it has not been successful in thoroughlyomit...

متن کاملWXCP: Explicit Congestion Control for Wireless Multi-hop Networks
TCP experiences serious performance degradation in wireless multi-hop networks with its probe-based, loss-driven congestion control scheme. We describe the Wireless eXplicit Congestion control Protocol (WXCP), a new explicit flow control protocol for wireless multi-hop networks based on XCP. We highlight the approaches taken by WXCP to address the difficulties faced by the current TCP implement...
متن کاملDecoupling congestion control from TCP (semi-TCP) for multi-hop wireless networks
Although many problems for transmission control protocol (TCP) in multi-hop wireless networks have been studied with many proposals in the literature, they are not solved completely yet. Different from the existing proposals to mitigate the limitation of TCP in multi-hop wireless networks, we propose a framework of semi-TCP which decouples two functionalities of traditional TCP, i.e., congestio...
متن کاملCONGESTION CONTROL IN MULTI - HOP WIRELESS NETWORKS by Sumit Rangwala
In this dissertation, we propose that it is necessary to consider wireless neighborhood as a single indivisible entity for congestion control in multi-hop wireless networks. We precisely define this neighborhood for a class of contention-based wireless networks and validate it with three protocols. We design IFRC, an openloop rate-based fully distributed congestion control protocol for multi-ho...
