Performance Simulation of TCP/IP Protocol over Half-Duplex Link

Networking communication with radio station has very important application in some special occasion.Generally,communication mode of radio station is half-duplex.Accordingly,It is desirable to study the applicability and performance of TCP/IP protocol under this condition.The NS is a common network simulator,but there is no half-duplex link model in its component base.In this paper,we first discuss how to set up a half duplex model in NS,and then study the performance of TCP/IP protocol running on half-duplex channel.The results of the simulation experiment show that TCP/IP protocol can absolutely run on a half-duplex channel,if the data collision problem of half-duplex channel could be solved.
