UW/EE Technical Report: Performance Modelling of TCP Enhancements in Terrestrial-Satellite Hybrid Networks
Overview This paper focuses on the performance of TCP enhancements for a hybrid terrestrial satellite network. While a large body of literature exists regarding modeling TCP performance for the wired Internet, and recently over a single-hop wireless link, the literature is very sparse on TCP analysis over a hybrid wired-wireless (multi-hop) path. The authors seek to make a contribution to this problem (where the wireless segment is a satellite uplink) by deriving analytical estimates of TCP throughput for two widely deployed approaches - TCP splitting and E2E (End-to-End) TCP with link layer support as a function of key parameters such as terrestrial/satellite propagation delay, segment loss rate and buffer size.
