On the interaction of TCP with BoD in GEO broadband satellite networks

چکیده
This paper reports a simulation study of the interaction between the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and Bandwidth on Demand (BoD) mechanisms in broadband satellite networks. It forms part of a broader effort aiming at the identification of the proper mechanisms and algorithms to efficiently carry TCP traffic over these networks. We investigate two aspects of this rather complicated interaction, related to the possible BoD configurations and the TCP tuning parameters, focusing on GEO satellite networks. The impact on TCP performance and system efficiency is evaluated and effects that cannot be easily captured by analysis are highlighted.

OPNET Model of TCP with adaptive delay and loss response for broadband GEO satellite networks
Transmission control protocol (TCP) provides reliable transport services for Internet applications. Broadband geostationary earth orbit (GEO) satellite networks play an important role in providing Internet access and network connectivity. They are characterized by long propagation delays and high bit error rates, which negatively affect TCP performance. We proposed a modification of TCP named T...
متن کاملBroadband Satellite Network: TCP/IP Performance Analysis
A number of satellite communication systems have been proposed using geosynchronous (GEO) satellites, as well as low earth orbit (LEO) constellations operating in the Ka-band and above. At these frequencies satellite networks are able to provide broadband services requiring wider bandwidth than the current services at C or Ku-band. As a consequence, some of the new services gaining momentum inc...
متن کاملSupport of elastic TCP traffic over broadband geostationary satellite networks
Support of elastic TCP traffic over broadband GEO satellite networks v control algorithm for TCP flows over split-TCP satellite networks that can preserve the target requirements in terms of TCP steady-state throughput and TCP latency. We describe generic fixed-point approximations for the performance of TCP flows in geostationary satellite networks. We provide examples for the method applicabi...
متن کاملIntegrated Connection Admission Control and Bandwidth on Demand Algorithm for a Broadband Satellite Network with Heterogeneous Traffic
There are many system proposals for satellitebased broadband communications that promise high capacity and ease of access. Many of these proposals require advanced switching technology and signal processing on-board the satellite(s). One solution is based on a geo-synchronous (GEO) satellite system equipped with on-board processing and on-board switching. An important feature of this system is ...
متن کاملA Cross-Layer PEP for DVB-RCS Networks
The aim of this paper is to consider the problems of TCP performance in broadband GEO satellite networks and to propose a crosslayer approach for a transport-layer PEP that makes spoofing actions on ACKs to modify them in case the satellite network is congested. This approach is investigated here from the signaling standpoint with a special attention to the BSM reference model and considering a...
