TCP Performance in Wireless Access With Adaptive Modulation and Coding

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview We study a wireless access system with adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) at the physical layer, finite-length queuing at the data link layer and a TCP protocol at the transport layer. We analyze the end-to-end TCP performance via a fixed-point procedure that effectively couples TCP with the AMC-based wireless link. This paper presents a simple cross-layer design, which optimizes the target packet error rate in AMC at the physical layer, so that the TCP throughput at the transport layer is maximized.

Convergence: lower costs and extra flexibility - the IP VPN promise

The public internet is seen as the ideal transport network for this as long as the service level is understood to be 'best effort'. According to Frost & Sullivan, the lower barriers to entry of public internet-based IP VPNs, secured by technologies...

What are IP VPNs good for?

Infonet is now saying that businesses can buy packet-switched voice over an IP VPN as a standalone product, and then add in other data traffic later on," says Henning Dransfeld, senior analyst for enterprise IP services at Ovum.

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?
