A Novel TCP over Wireless Fading Channel and Its Steady State Throughput Model
Guangxin Yue · Beijing Youdian Xueyuan xuebao · 2005
We propose an improved wireless transport control protocol-TCP__LD(TCP lose detection). Using bandwidth estimation, this scheme can distinguish the reason of packets errors, hence adopt appropriate congestion control mechanism. Based on the TCP throughput model of Padhye, an analytical model of TCP__LD steady state throughput is educed. The results show that our scheme is simple and effective for dealing with random packet loss, and can achieve significant throughput improvements without adversely affecting other concurrent TCP connections.
