An enhanced TCP mechanism - Fast-TCP in IP networks with wireless links
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the results of the first study on performance of Fast-TCP over wireless links with transmission errors. We have studied a case in which a TCP source is connected with a TCP receiver over two routers. The link between the routers is wireless and has bit errors. We compare the performance of Fast-TCP with plain TCP in the wireless environment. We evaluate Fast-TCP using the OPNET Radio ModelerTM discrete event simulation tool. Simulation results show that even without any adaptations of other wireless protocols Fast-TCP still has more advantages over plain TCP.

Improving Bandwidth-power Efficiency of Homogeneous Wireless Networks Using On-meet Threshold Strategy (RESEARCH NOTE)
Over two decades, a problem of location dependent has been focused for improving the communication Bandwidth-Power Efficiency of homogeneous networks. The efficiencies of communication links are weakened by the Hidden Terminal Problem. Thus we propose a Fine – Tune Strategy for analyzing the On-Off communication region. We were observed that the proposed technique had been able to track and mo...
متن کاملLoss Differentiation Schemes for TCP over Wireless Networks
The use of loss differentiation schemes within the congestion control mechanism of TCP was proposed recently as a way of improving TCP performance over heterogeneous networks including wireless links affected by random loss. Such algorithms provide TCP with an estimate of the cause of packet losses. In this paper, we propose to use the Vegas loss differentiation algorithm to enhance the TCP New...
متن کاملA new ATM adaptation layer for TCP/IP over wireless ATM networks
This paper describes the design and performance of a new ATM adaptation layer protocol (AAL-T) for improving TCP performance over wireless ATM networks. The wireless links are characterized by higher error rates and burstier error patterns in comparison with the fiber links for which ATM was introduced in the beginning. Since the low performance of TCP over wireless ATM networks is mainly due t...
متن کاملEvaluating Multipath TCP Resilience against Link Failures
Standard TCP is the de facto reliable transfer protocol for the Internet. It is designed to establish a reliable connection using only a single network interface. However, standard TCP with single interfacing performs poorly due to intermittent node connectivity. This requires the re-establishment of connections as the IP addresses change. Multi-path TCP (MPTCP) has emerged to utilize multiple ...
متن کاملReceiver-Based ACK Splitting Mechanism for TCP over Wired/Wireless Heterogeneous Networks
With the rapid development of wireless network technologies, heterogeneous networks with wired and wireless links are becoming common. However, the performance of TCP data transmission deteriorates significantly when a TCP connection traverses such networks, mainly because of packet losses caused by the high bit error rate of wireless links. Many solutions for this problem have been proposed in...
