A dynamic analysis of variable window size protocols
Chengshu Li · 1983
Window protocols for multiple access broadcast channels have good throughput and stability characteristics. In this report we examined the dynamic behavior of fixed and variable window size protocols. For fixed window size protocols the equilibrium operating point and its stability are discussed. By optimizing first and second step window size a larger throughput can be obtained. We suggest a variable window size protocol. The change of window size and the dynamic process of the variable window protocols are treated in detail.
