SCTP with Explicit Freeze and Melt Notification for Delay Tolerant Applications
Yousic LEE, Jae-Dong Lee, Taekeun Park · IEICE Transactions on Communications · 2012
In this letter, for offloading traffic to Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) with transport layer mobility where WLAN service is intermittently available, we propose a novel scheme to freeze and melt the timeout handling procedure of SCTP. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme significantly improves the performance in terms of file transfer completion time.
