When you re using your mobile device, you can connect to several wireless networks at the
same time, such as 3G (HSPA)/4G (LTE) and WiFi. These links could be used at the same …

We present a TCP-compatible and-friendly protocol which abolishes thr ee major shortfalls
of TCP for reliable multimedia applications over heterogeneous networks:(i) ineffective …

When a TCP sender receives three successive duplicate ACKs indicating a packet loss, loss
differentiation algorithms (LDAs) distinguish wireless losses from congestion losses to …

Many end-to-end TCP implementations have been presented in the past decade. Despite
that they used different methods to improve transport protocols over wireless networks; they …

The number of Internet users which are connected via mobile networks such as 3G and LTE
has increased dramatically in recent years. It is well-known that wireless networks in …

Transmission control protocol (TCP) suffers significant performance degradation over
wireless networks where packet losses are not always caused by network congestion. In …

TCP error control mechanism lacks the ability to detect with precision the nature of potential
errors during communication. It is only capable of detecting the results of the errors, namely …

Abstract Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a connection oriented, reliable delivery,
transport layer protocol. The performance of TCP is degraded when it is used in wireless …

The number of nomadic users that access the Internet using wireless technology grows
rapidly. Soon, in the upcoming era of mobile computing, every portable device will have a …

This letter investigates the problem associated with retransmission timeout (RTO) that is
used in transport layer protocols. The current RTO algorithm is designed for wired networks …
