TCP Throughput Analysis Under Transmission Error and Congestion Losses
Overview This paper analyzes the performance of a large population of long lived TCP flows experiencing random packet losses due to both random transmission errors and congestion created by the sharing of a common tail drop bottleneck router. The paper proposes a natural and simple model for the joint throughput evolution of the set of TCP sessions under such a mix of losses. For the case of Poisson transmission errors, it shows that the asymptotic model where the population tends to infinity leads to a well defined and tractable dynamical system.
