This paper investigates the performance of the TCP transport protocol over IEEE 802.11 wireless networks. A wireless link is generally characterized by high transmission errors an...
Abstract. Conventional TCP in wireless environment has a lack of ability to differentiate the packet losses caused by network congestion from those caused by wireless link error. ...
— In 802.11 wireless links with disabled MAC retries, data and ACK packets within a TCP session collide resulting in packet losses. We show in this paper that in this situation, ...
We present a TCP-compatible and -friendly protocol which abolishes three major shortfalls of TCP for reliable multimedia applications over heterogeneous networks: (i) ineffective ...
We present the results of a performance evaluation of link layer error recovery over wireless links. Our analysis is based upon a case study of the circuit-switched data service i...
