TCP/IP over aeronautical communication systems — Effects on bandwidth consumption
Max Ehammer, Thomas Gräupl, Carl-Herbert Rokitansky · 2009
The TCP protocol has been selected as the transport layer protocol of the ATN/IPS. However, there are multiple known deficiencies of the protocol when operating over ldquolong thin networksrdquo. In this paper we discuss several well-known TCP optimization techniques and their application to aeronautical data traffic. The performance of TCP is evaluated and analyzed in a simulated environment based on the COCR report.
