Multi-path-based Distributed TCP Caching for Wireless Sensor Networks
Yuhua Liu, Hao Huang, Kaihua Xu · 2007
The paper investigates some important transport layer algorithms for wireless sensor networks. On the basis of the single-path-based distributed TCP caching, which work badly when some node on the path be down, adopt multi-path routing on the network layer and distributed TCP caching on the transport layer to enhance transport reliability. From the simulation results, it improves overall performance in term of end-to-end transport delay comparing with the original DTC algorithm and loads are distributed among the intermediate nodes. And then address some open issues as the research prospects.
