Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a connection oriented and reliable transport protocol. It considers congestion to be the sole reason for any packet loss on the network and accordingly slows down its transmission rate. As a result, the performance of TCP is greatly impacted over wireless links which are quite lossy. This paper introduces a new protocol, that aims at improving the TCP performance over lossy links. The protocol tries to differentiate between the congestion and corruption over the link with the help of receiver. The simulation results establish performance improvements in comparison to TCP Tahoe and TCP New Reno.
