TCP Performance Enhancement Over UMTS Network With RNC Feedback

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview TCP optimization for wireless networks to deal with packet losses due to fading, shadowing and contention should preferably maintain TCP end-to-end semantics with minimal dependence on intermediate nodes. The development of advanced 3G networks and services makes it necessary to find a way of improving TCP's efficiency and resource utilization. Previous research on this issue suggests that TCP needs radio network feedback to distinguish wireless related losses from congestion related losses. This paper presents such a mechanism that notifies the TCP sender of any non-congestion related losses by introducing a proxy at the RNC node of the UMTS network.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Forget 'think different' - think 'non-linear'...

Unfortunately, this single point efficiency leads to an overall system inefficiency and is a significant damage generation mechanism. The energy output varies in direct proportion to the energy input given the losses due to frictional heating and...

Powerline coming of age

The losses across the meter and premises distribution board prevent interference from individual premises penetrating into the main distribution cables thus preventing any cumulative effects. Equally, there has been a lot of hype against PLC, in...

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

The packets that make up the audio stream may take different routes from node to node over the network in question but and are put back into order at the termination point to make up the audio that we recognise as conversation.

RFID-tagged driverless cars on roads by 2056

The UK's transport infrastructure will be radically changed over the next 50 years by RFID tracking tags, embedded sensors and an artificial intelligence network that will reduce congestion and pollution, according to scientists from the...

Radioactive: Today a jam, tomorrow the open road?

The impact of congestion and accidents is staggering when accumulated. In Germany, according to the Network on Wheels (NOW) consortium, 13 million hours of delay are wasted each year in congestion. What's unique about the car-to-car initiative is...

Peter Cochrane's Blog: Fat cat telcos are killing the net

Yes, it all works to some degree some of the time but continually increasing the number of VoIP and videoconference calls, radio and TV broadcasts just creates congestion, increased latencies and ultimately one meltdown after another.

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?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
