On the Evaluation of TCP in MANETs
Overview Past research efforts have denoted the problematic behaviour of traditional TCP agents in MANET environments and have proposed various remedies across the networking stack. However, there has not been an overall performance evaluation of different TCP agents under varying mobility conditions which takes into account past experiences in MANET evaluation. This paper aims to rectify this shortcoming through detailed evaluation of prevalent TCP variants in different topology settings over the AODV routing protocol. Subsequent results reveal the performance merits of TCP Vegas and NewReno in MANETs with respect to Reno which is further explored and accounted for. Finally, insight is provided through extensive tracing on the interaction of TCP with the routing protocol.
