TCP over multihop 802.11 networks: issues and performance enhancement
Abstract
Analyzing TCP operation over 802.11 multihop ad hoc networks involves a cross-layer study. In this work, we investigate the effect of congestion and MAC contention on the interaction between TCP and on-demand ad hoc routing protocol in the 802.11 ad hoc networks. Our study reveals several problems stemming from lack of coordination and sharing in such networks. It is observed that TCP induces the over-reaction of routing protocol and hurts the quality of end-to-end connection. So, one of the critical sources of lowering TCP throughput lies in the TCP window mechanism itself. To fix this problem, we propose a fractional window increment (FeW) scheme for TCP to prevent the over-reaction of the on-demand routing protocol by limiting TCP's aggressiveness. The proposed scheme is applicable to a wide range of transport protocols using the basic TCP mechanism, and the protocol behavior is analytically tractable. Our simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can dramatically improve TCP performance and network stability in a variety of 802.11 multihop networks. For example, in some chain-like topologies, the proposed scheme outperforms basic TCP by over 90%, and recent related variants of TCP (ADTCP, LRED) by over 70%.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
