TCP was designed and tuned to work well on networks where losses are mainly congestion losses. The performance of TCP decreases dramatically when a TCP connection traverses a wire...
The use of contention-based MAC protocols combined with hidden terminal problems make multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks much more sensitive to load and congestion than wired netw...

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. ...
Today’s universal communications increasingly involve mobile and battery-powered devices (e.g. hand-held, laptop) over wired and wireless networks. Energy efficiency, as well as...
