IP-Packet Service Time Distributions in UMTS Radio Access Networks

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview The work discussed in this paper deals with the service time of IP-packets within the UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN). The focus is on the influence of the Radio Link Control (RLC) Layer's ARQ-mechanism with respect to the various parametrization possibilities. The service time of IP packets is evaluated by means of pdf and ccdf functions. Beside the discussion of the optimal parameter choice, the service time statistics are linked to TCP performance results. It is shown that even a good parameter choice may lead to long service times, and that the shortest possible service time does not necessarily lead to the best TCP performance.

GPRS networks lose 43 per cent of data

Up to 43 per cent of data packets got lost on the way from the radio terminal to the mast, and the latency - or the delay between a request and a response - was up to five seconds. Their surveys of radio networks showed that while GPRS coverage is...

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
