基于网络利用率最大化来提高无线Mesh网络中TCP协议的传输性能(英文)
Performance Enhancement and Utility Maximization for TCP in Wireless Mesh Networks
【摘要】 In Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs),the performance of conventional TCP significantly deteriorates due to the unreliable wireless channel.To enhance TCP performance in WMNs,TCP/LT is proposed in this paper.It introduces fountain codes into packet reorganization in the protocol stack of mesh gateways and mesh clients.Furthermore,it is compatible with conventional TCP.Regarded as a Performance Enhancement Proxies (PEP),a mesh gateway buffers TCP packets into several blocks.It simultaneously processes them by using fountain encoders and then sends them to mesh clients.Apart from the improvement of the throughput of a unitary TCP flow,the entire network utility maximization can also be ensured by adjusting the scale of coding blocks for each TCP flow adaptively.Simulations show that TCP/LT presents high throughput gains over single TCP in lossy links of WMNs while preserving the fairness for multiple TCPs.As losses increase,the transmission delay of TCP/LT experiences a slow linear growth in contrast to the exponential growth of TCP.
