Gateway Adaptive Pacing for TCP Across Multihop Wireless Networks and the Internet

Overview This paper introduces an effective congestion control scheme for TCP over hybrid wireless/wired networks comprising a multihop wireless IEEE 802.11 network and the wired Internet. We propose an adaptive pacing scheme at the Internet gateway for wired-to-wireless TCP flows. Furthermore, the causes for the unfairness of oncoming TCP flows are analyzed and a scheme is proposed to throttle aggressive wired-to-wireless TCP flows at the Internet gateway to achieve nearly optimal fairness. Thus, it denotes the introduced congestion control scheme TCP with Gateway Adaptive Pacing (TCP-GAP). For wireless-to-wired flows, an adaptive pacing scheme is proposed at the TCP sender.
