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 …

Many analytical and simulation-based studies of TCP performance in wireless environments
assume an error-free and congestion-free reverse channel that has the same capacity as the …

One of the main reasons for TCP's degraded performance in wireless networks is TCP's
interpretation that packet loss is caused by congestion. However, in wireless networks …

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 …

Computer networks have experienced an explosive growth over the past few years, which
has lead to some severe congestion problems. Reliable protocols like TCP works well in …

Reliable transport protocols such as TCP are tuned to perform well in traditional networks
where packet losses occur mostly because of congestion. However, networks with wireless …

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is the dominant transport protocol in the Internet and
supports many of the most popular Internet applications, such as the World Wide Web …

In recent years, many extensive studies have been performed that have attempted to
improve the performance of TCP for wireless networks. The common assumptions made by …

Due to the fast advances in wireless networking technology, there is an increasing number
of hosts using TCP/IP to connect to the Internet via wireless links. However, it is known that …

The Internet provides a platform for rapid and timely information exchange among a
disparate array of clients and servers. TCP and IP are separately designed and closely tied …
