SCTP over Satellite Networks

چکیده
The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) has recently been standardized as a new transport layer protocol in the IP protocol suite. In addition to the core features of TCP, SCTP incorporates a number of advanced and unique features which are not available in TCP. The objective of this paper is to investigate the suitability of SCTP for data communications over satellite links. We describe SCTP features that allow SCTP to better utilize the bandwidth of satellite networks, while at the same time avoiding congestion collapse in a shared network. Finally, we provide recommendations on the use of SCTP over satellite networks.

Evaluation of SCTP multistreaming over wireless/satellite links
In this paper, we study the impact of multistreaming on the performance of SCTP over satellite networks. We first show that multistreaming results in higher goodput than single streams when the receiver buffer is constrained as in the case of wireless handheld devices. We then demonstrate that the multistreaming feature of SCTP results in reduced buffer requirements at the receiver in the prese...
متن کاملPerformance analysis of TCP and SCTP over Satellite Networks due to Effect of Congestion Control
Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a new transport layer protocol which can be deployed in the Internet along with TCP. In this paper, we investigate the performance issues that arise when SCTP and TCP are used in the same satellite network. We evaluate performance through measurement of throughput, and also fairness of use of networks resources by the two protocols. We observed tha...
متن کاملImproving Performance of SCTP over Broadband High Latency Networks
Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is newly emerged protocol, which combined good qualities of TCP and UDP. It is a reliable message oriented protocol providing Multistreaming and Multihoming as well. The congestion control scheme of SCTP is more or less similar to that of TCP with the exception of the Fast Recovery algorithm. The performance of SCTP over the Internet and satellite lin...
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...
