Current TCP is not able to distinguish corruption losses from packet loss events. Hence, high
transmission errors and varying inherent latency within a wireless network would cause …

Neither the current TCP protocol nor the standard backoff algorithm of IEEE 802.11 protocol
is able to distinguish corruption loss from congestion or collision loss. Hence, high …

TCP performance degrades when end-to-end connections extend over wireless links which
are characterized by high Bit Error Rate and intermittent connectivity. Such degradation is …

The conventional TCP tends to suffer from performance degradation due to packet
corruptions in the wireless lossy channels, since any corruption event is regarded as an …

The increasing speed and coverage of wireless wide-area networks (WWAN) has made
technologies such as GPRS, UMTS, or HSDPA a popular way to access the Internet for both …

Wireless links are characterized by high bit error rates and intermittent connectivity. This can
result in significant degradation in the performance (goodput) of TCP over wireless networks …

Multihop ad hoc networks are collection of wireless nodes dynamically forming a temporary
network without the use of any pre-existing network infrastructure or centralized …

In the wireless network, if the TCP cannot identify the wireless error, it overly reduces the
transmission rate by unnecessarily cutting the congestion window down. Therefore, to …

Today there is a growing demand for Internet services over WLAN hotspots. Majority of the
Internet services today are based on TCP. However, TCP is not well-suited for …

TCP performs poorly in wireless mobile networks due to large bit error rates. Basically, the
TCP sender responds to these losses as if they were due to congestion in the network, and …
