H-TCP:TCP for RFID Reader Network
Shengli Lai · Science Technology and Engineering · 2007
A new TCP transmission mechanism H-TCP within RFID reader network is proposed.The work flow and critical approaches are analyzed and designed in detail.Based on the characteristic of data packet in communication within RFID reader network and CSMA/CA in 802.11 implemented in the network,ASR-ARQ is adopted in link layer between mobile RFID reader and RNC,and the enhanced slow start is used in transport layer to improve TCP throughput within the limited bandwidth and save the power of mobile RFID reader.Experiment results show that H-TCP does improve highly the performance of data transmission and save largely the energy of mobile RFID readers.
