Exploring the Effect of Inter-Flow Interference on TCP Performance in MANETs

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview Research efforts in MANETs have concentrated on smoothing TCP incompatibilities with the IEEE 802.11 protocol due to the degrading effects of hidden terminals caused by transmission interference. Previous studies which have focused on solutions at the transport layer, have analysed the behaviour of single or isolated TCP flows and thus have assessed the effect of intra-flow interference only. This paper examines the effectiveness of a transport layer proposed solution called Slow Congestion Avoidance (SCA) TCP under particular conditions of inter-flow interference where multiple flows originate from the same sender. The simulation experiments indicate that by optimising the sending rate increase according to the number of simultaneous TCP connections the effects of interference are minimised and a noticeable performance gain is achieved.

More money for high-tech road pricing

Transport Secretary Alistair Darling said in a statement: "I'm convinced that without more radical measures, including more effective demand management and actively managing traffic flows, road congestion will get worse.

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?
