A novel wireless TCP based on bandwidth estimation
Guangxin Yue · Journal of Circuits and Systems · 2007
In this paper,an improved wireless transport control protocol-TCP_LD(TCP Loss Detection) is proposed.Using bandwidth estimation,this scheme can distinguish the reason of packets error,hence adopt appropriate congestion control mechanism.Based on the TCP throughput model of Padhye,an analytical model of TCP_LD steady state throughput is deduced.The results show that TCP_LD is simple and effective for dealing with random packet loss,and can achieve significant throughput improvements.
