TCPR: A Protocol for Handling Out of Order Packets in Satellite Networks

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview Studies have shown that packet reordering is common, especially in satellite networks where there are link level retransmissions and multipath routing. Moreover, satellite networks exhibit high corruption rates causing packet losses. Reordering and corruption of packets decrease the TCP performance of a network, mainly because it leads to overestimation of the congestion in the network. The paper considers satellite networks and analyzes the performance of such networks when reordering and corruption of packets occurs. A solution is proposed that could significantly improve the performance of the network when reordering and corruption of packets occur in a satellite network.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Circuit or packet, clean or dirty?

It is impossible to control the internet in the same way we control the telephone network and so congestion, collisions and traffic jams cause delays, bunching of packets in an unpredictable manner. For non-real time applications such as email and...

What are IP VPNs good for?

Because IPSec encrypts data before forwarding it over the IP VPN and then decrypting it, there's a delay that makes using these apps together tough, and practically prohibits voice packets. While acknowledging IPSec's role in supporting users at...

Indian telecoms explosion tempts Cisco

MPLS is a technology that tags IP packets and creates secure tunnels for traffic through the network. We have been working closely with all the premier carriers in India to provide them with packet gear.

VoIP primer: How it works - and what the jargon means

The problems of packet loss, delay and jitter are exacerbated when voice traffic intermingles with packets from other applications. When packets arrive at their destination, they can arrive in any order with significant delay.

Devil's Advocate: In search of wireless nirvana

An appealing application for power over ethernet is support for a centrally powered, distributed network that channels data packets on fewer and fewer cables as they get closer to central points that house servers.

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?
