TFRC Veno: An Enhancement of TCP Friendly Rate Control Over Wired/Wireless Networks

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview TFRC is a TCP-Friendly Rate Control protocol based on TCP Reno's throughput equation. It is designed to provide optimal service for unicast multimedia flow operating in the wired Internet environment. However, in wireless networks, TFRC, same as TCP Reno, suffers significant performance degradation. This paper proposes to make use of a more advanced equation to enhance TFRC over wireless networks. After incorporating this equation into TFRC, two achievements are obtained: this enhanced TFRC has a significant throughput improvement; it is shown that in wireless networks with 10% loss rate, it can obtain 300% improvement over the original TFRC; this enhanced TFRC inherits the desirable features of TFRC, namely good fairness, nice TCP-friendliness and smoothness of sending rate.

The Value Proposition: the price of knowledge

You need to know the interest rate of knowledge so that you can plug it in to the equation, Capital x Interest Rate = EVA. In this case we know EVA so the equation can be rearranged to Knowledge Capital = EVA/Interest Rate.

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?
