Modeling TCP Throughput Over Wired/Wireless Heterogeneous Networks for Receiver-Based ACK Splitting Mechanism

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview Recently, heterogeneous networks with wired and wireless links are becoming common. However, the performance of TCP data transmission deteriorates significantly over such networks because of packet losses caused by the high bit error rate of wireless links. The paper had proposed receiver-based ACK splitting mechanism to solve that problem previously. The mechanism does not need modifications to the sender TCP or the base station. It uses the ACK-splitting method for increasing the congestion window size quickly to restrain the throughput degradation caused by packet losses due to the high bit error rate of wireless links.
