Multipath transport protocol for heterogeneous multi-homing networks
Younghak Hwang, Brownson Obaridoa Obele, Hyuk Lim · 2010
We present a new multipath transport protocol - Heterogeneous Multipath Transport Protocol (HMTP), powered by fountain codes to improve throughput performance and path utilization of heterogeneous multi-homing networks. HMTP solves the receive buffer blocking problem and eliminates the need for retransmission and in-order packet delivery, especially in a heterogeneous multi-homing network.
