TCP Congestion Control Algorithm Based on Satellite Network
Yongxin Feng · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2009
This paper analyzes the characteristics of the satellite network and the problem of current slow-start.A slow-start algorithm is presented, which approaches the slow-start threshold gradually and provides a smooth transition between the exponential and linear growth phases.Simulation results show that this algorithm can improve the performance of TCP congestion control at the start of a TCP connection or after a retransmission timeout,and improves throughput of satellite network.
