초록

이기종 무선망에서의 수직적 핸드오프는 전송지연시간과 전송대역의 큰 변화를 가져온다. 이로 인하여, 오인된 재전송과 대역의 비효율적 사용을 유발시키며, 결국 TCP의 성능을 크게 저하시킨다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여, 각 무선망에서 사용되었던 TCP 상태 변수 값들을 분리하여 저장하는 방법을 제안하였다. 이기종 무선망간의 수직적 핸드오프 시, 해당 무선망에서 사용되어 저장되었던 TCP 상태 변수 값들이, 현재 동작하는 TCP 상태 변수 값들로 전환되어 사용된다. 시뮬레이션 분석을 통하여, 제안된 TCP 혼잡제어가 수직적 핸드오프에 대하여 TCP 성능 저하가 발생하지 않았으며, TCP SACK과 비교하여 전송률에서 좋은 성능을 보여주었다.

The heterogeneous wireless access networks has been envisioned to characterize the future wireless networks. In such environments, TCP(Transmission Control Protocol) has to experience poor end-to-end performance because bandwidth and link delay change suddenly when a mobile node moves over different types of wireless networks, which is called vertical handoff. In this paper, we propose a new TCP which maintains each set of congestion control variables, which we call TCP context, for each type of wireless network. The proposed TCP can switch the TCP context against vertical handoff in order to adjust quickly to a newly arrived network. In simulations, the proposed TCP has higher throughput than TCP SACK(Selective Acknowledgment Options) due to its great features to vertical handoff situations.
