An enhancement of TCP veno over light-load wireless networks
Bin Zhou, Cheng Fu, Ke Zhang, Chiew Tong Lau, Chuan Heng Foh · IEEE Communications Letters · 2006
This letter observes that TCP Veno behaves conservatively over light-load wireless networks. A new variable, congestion loss rate, is introduced into Veno's algorithm. It helps Veno deal with random loss more intelligently, by keeping its congestion window increasing if the link load is in light state. The simulation results demonstrate that, such enhancement can improve Veno's throughput up to 60% without any fairness or friendliness sacrificed
