In this letter, a new transport layer mechanism is proposed to improve the performance of
transport control protocol (TCP) in mobile networks. The proposed mechanism is comprised …

In wireless environment, TCP suffers from significant performance degradation due to bit
errors on wireless link and handovers because it responds to all packet losses by invoking …

TcP suffers from poor performance under error-prone wireless environments. The network
research community has explored a wide range of solutions for this situation, including link …

To match an ideal Internet gateway which rigorously enforces fair sharing among competing
TCP connections, an ideal TCP sender should possess two properties while obeying …

TCP Westwood (TCPW) is a sender-side modification of the TCP congestion window
algorithm that improves upon the performance of TCP Reno in wired as well as wireless …

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is designed to offer higher throughput than single-path TCP, and
meanwhile MPTCP flow is fair to concurrent TCP flows at the bottleneck. Although the …

The last three decades have seen much evolution in web and network protocols: amongst
them, a transition from HTTP/1.1 to HTTP/2 and a shift from loss-based to delay-based TCP …

When TCP operates in wireless networks, its congestion control algorithms such as fast
retransmit recovery (FRR) and retransmission timeouts (RTO) are often triggered even when …

In this paper we present an evaluation of the two major parts of TCP that impact its
performance in wireless environments, namely error detection and congestion control. We …

Different from IEEE802. 11 (wifi) and traditional 3G wireless networks, LTE networks have
the features of high link variability and end user mobility. There exists a huge gap in …
