Analysis of Optimal Protocol Parameter Setting of SCTP over Wireless Networks
Haibin Zhang · Telecommunication Engineering · 2005
The influence of various protocol parameters configuration on system transport performance is studied when the Stream Control Transfer Protocol (SCTP) runs over wireless networks such as WLAN, GPRS and UMTS. The SCTP protocol parameters setting is found out when the maximum system transport is reached, thus the key problem of optimal parameter setting of IETF-RFC2960-SCTP which is applied on wireless networks is solved. It is shown by theoretical analysis and simulation result that the protocol transport performance of SCTP configured by the optimal parameter setting is much better than that of the SCTP configured by the traditional parameter setting.
