Performance Analysis of Transport Protocol
Xu Xin, Tang Kai, MA Yi-fei · 2000
TCP IS a reliable transport protocol tuned to * perform well in traditional networks made up of wired links with stationary hosts. But it encounters inany problems in the satellite environment, causing degraded performance. In this paper, some of these problems are discussed, and some modification schemes to TCP and a new satellite protocol designed for satellite network are introduced. Simulations and experiments are implemented to compare performance of three of these schemes. After analyzing and discussing of the results, several suggestions are put forward to provide some gist for choosing transport protocol ~mplenientation schemes in satellite networks.
