무선망에서는 유선망에 비해 그 특성상 비교적 많은 패킷을 손실된다. TCP 프로토콜은 흐름제어나 에러정정, 혼잡 제어 등의 기능을 통해 보다 효율적이고 안정적인 통신을 지원하고 있다. 하지만 표준 TCP 프로토콜은 유선망의 특성을 고려하여 개발하였기 때문에 무선망에서 혼잡한 상황에서 패킷이 도달하지 못한 경우와 실제로 패킷이 손실되어 전달되지 못하는 경우를 구분하지 못한다. 최근까지 제시된 여러 이동망 TCP에 대한 논문은 무선망에서 패킷이 손실된 경우 혼잡 제어를 일어나지 못하게 하는 방법을 제시하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 TCP Persist Timer를 이용하여 혼잡제어를 회피하는 방법을 기존에 제시된 Snoop 프로토콜에 적용하여 자체적인 이동망상에서의 TCP 성능향상에 더하여 연속적인 에러에 대한 성능 향상을 제고하고 있다. 개선된 Snoop 프로토콜은 WZACK(Window Size Zero ACKnowledge Packet)을 이용하여 혼잡제어를 정지시킴으로써 비효율적인 혼잡제어를 막도록한다.

최근 인터넷의 발전으로 디지털 오디오 및 비디오와 같은 멀티미디어 스트림에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 이러한 멀티미디어 스트리밍을 UDP로 전송할 경우 TCP와 같은 혼잡제어를 수행하지 않기 때문에 동일한 전송경로의 TCP 트래픽 궁핍을 일으켜 혼잡붕괴 및 막대한 전송지연을 초래한다. 이러한 문제점으로 인하여 실시간 멀티미디어 스트림의 전송지연과 혼잡제어를 위한 새로운 전송기법과 프로토콜에 대한 다각적인 연구가 수행되고 있다. TCP 친화적 혼잡제어 기법은 크게 일반적인 혼잡윈도우 관리기능을 이용하는 윈도우 기반 혼잡제어와 TCP 모델링 방정식 둥을 이용하여 전송율을 직접 조절하는 율 기반 혼잡제어로 나눌 수 있다. 본 논문은 윈도우 기반과 율 기반을 복합적으로 다룬 하이브리드형 TCP-friendly 혼잡제어 기법에서 Square-root 혼잡회피 알고리즘을 제안하였으며, NS를 사용하여 제안한 TEAR의 성능을 실험하였다. 실험을 통하여 제안한 기법의 적용으로 TEAR의 안정성을 개선함을 알 수 있었다.

A congestion control algorithm to prevent buffer overflow in MSR(Mobility Support Router) for I-TCP is proposed. Due to high bit error rate and frequent hand-offs over wireless environment, the current congestion control scheme in TCP Reno over mixed(wired and wireless) network exhibits lower throughput than the throughput achieved over wired only network. I-TCP has been proposed to address this by splitting a TCP connection into two TCP connections over wired section and wireless section, respectively. However, buffer overflow in MSR may occur whenever there are excessive bit errors or frequent hand-offs. This may lead to the loss of packets acked by MSR(resident in buffer) to the sender, but not received by the receiver, breaking TCP end-to-end semantics. In this Paper, a new scheme is proposed to prevent the MSR buffer from overflow by introducing “flow control” between the sender and the MSR. Advertised window for the TCP connection between the sender and the MSR is tied to the remaining MSR buffer space, controlling the flow of packets to the MSR buffer before overflow occurs.

Recently, due to the high development of the internet, needs for multimedia streams such as digital audio and video is increasing much more. In case of transmitting multimedia streams using the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), it may cause starvation of TCP traffic on the same transmission path, thus resulting in congestion collapse and enormous delay because UDP does not perform TCP-like congestion control. Because of this problem, diverse researches are being conducted on new transmission schemes and protocols intended to efficiently reduce the transmission delay of real-time multimedia streams and perform congestion control. The TCP-friendly congestion control schemes can be classified into the window-based congestion control, which uses the general congestion window management function, and the rate-based congestion control, which dynamically adjusts transmission rate by using TCP modeling equations and the like. In this paper, we suggest the square-root congestion avoidance algorithm with the hybrid TCP-friendly congestion control scheme which the window-based and rate-based congestion controls are dealt with in a combined way. We apply the proposed algorithm to the existing TEAR. We simulate the performance of the proposed TEAR by using NS, and the result shows that it gives better improvement in the stability needed for providing congestion control than the existing TEAR.

TCP(Transmission Control Protocol)는 흐름제어와 오류제어 그리고 혼잡제어 등을 통해 목적지까지 효율적으로 데이터를 전송하는 프로토콜이다. 최근 라우터 성능 및 라우팅 알고리즘 등의 발달로 인해 패킷이 비순차적으로 전송되는 패킷 재배치(packet reordering)가 빈번한 발생하여 TCP 성능 저하의 주요 원인이 되고 있다. 패킷 재배치가 TCP 로 하여금 불필요한 재전송(Spurious Retransmission) 및 혼잡제어를 수행하도록 하기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 TCP 의 신속 재전송(Fast Retransmission)의 중복 응답 임계값(dupthresh)를 동적으로 조절함으로써, 불필요한 재전송 및 혼잡제어의 발생횟수를 효율적으로 줄이는 TCP-DAD(TCP Dynamically Adjusted Dupthresh)기법을 제안한다. 본 논문은 NS-2를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 통해 TCP-DAD 가 다른 TCP 메커니즘보다 평균적으로 약 34%의 성능 향상을 보임을 증명하였다.

Recently, the needs for multimedia stream such as digital audio and video in the Internet has increased tremendously. Unlike TCP, the UDP protocol, which has been used to transmit streaming traffic thorough the Internet, does not apply any congestion control mechanism to regulate the data flow thorough the shared network And it leads to congestion collapse of the Internet and results in long-term transmission delay. To avoid any adverse effect on the current Internet functionality, a now protocol of modification or addition of some functionality to perform congestion control and to reduce huge transmission delay in transmitting of multimedia stream are in study. TCP-friendly congestion control mechanism is classified into two : one is window-based congestion control scheme using general window management functionalities, the other is rate-based congestion control scheme using TCP modeling equation. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for improving the transmitting rate on a hybrid TCP-friendly congestion control scheme combined with widow-based and late-based congestion control for multimedia stream. And we also simulate the performance of improved TEAR implementation using NS. With He simulation results, we show that the improved TEAR can provide better fairness and lower rate fluctuations than TCP.

Measurements of network traffic have shown that self-similarity is a ubiquitous phenomenon spanning across diverse network environments. We have advance the framework of multiple time scale congestion control and show its effectiveness at enhancing performance for fast TCP prototype control. In this paper, we extend the fast TCP prototype control framework to window-based congestion control, in particular, TCP. This is performed by interfacing TCP with a large time scale control module which adjusts the aggressiveness of bandwidth consumption behavior exhibited by TCP as a function of "large time scale" network state. i.e., conformation that exceeds the horizon of the feedback loop as determined by RTT. Performance evaluation of fast TCP prototype is facilitated by a simulation bench-mark environment which is based on physical modeling of self-similar traffic. We explicate out methodology for discerning and evaluating the impact of changes in transport protocols in the protocol stack under self-similar traffic conditions. We discuss issues arising in comparative performance evaluation under heavy-tailed workload. workload.

The conventional transport layer protocol TCP is designed to work under condition of packet loss is due to the network congestion, so that it's suitable in the traditional wired network with fixed hosts but it's inefficient on the wireless network where the environment of fading, noise, and transmission error comes from interference. This result from the needless transmission control of the bit error is due to treats the packet loss as a packet congestion control in the wireless network. In this paper, we propose the advanced SNOOP protocol with the consecutive packet loss and TCP window control to avoid the needless congestion management algorithm in wireless network for the wireless TCP packet transmission enhancement. We verify the performance of the advanced module from the simulation experiment result.

It is important to improve TCP performance in Self-similar TCP network where signalling between the same end nodes through bidirectional traffic routes. In wireless link, the traffic limitation pattern occurred in two or more TCP connections is applied into MPEC video control as multi time-interval congestion control. For TCP update variable, we extend TCP and perform as function call, and we study a method of relating TCP with LTS module controlling with the information type that is overcoming the limit of feedback loop determined by RTT. For comparison, we measure the TCP throughput without LTS and verify the fairness by means of meta control. The improved TCP performance is shown by that the number of connections of traffic congestion control increases when RTT increases.

본 논문은 TCP에서 사용되는 혼잡 제어 방식의 문제점인 전송 시간에 대한 전송률 편중 현상을 완화시키기 위한 비례 증가 혼잡 제어 방식을 제안한다. TCP는 네트워크의 혼잡 상황을 제어하기 위하여 ACK 기반의 혼잡 윈도우 조정 방식을 사용한다. 그러나 기존 TCP에서 사용되는 혼잡 제어 방식은 그 자체적으로 네트워크의 혼잡 상황을 유도하며, 전송 시간이 다른 두 개의 TCP 연결이 하나의 병목 지점을 공유할 경우, 전송 시간의 차이에 따라 전송률의 편중 현상이 나타난다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 네트워크 혼잡 상황 유발과 전송 시간의 차이에 따른 전송률 편중 현상을 완화시키기 위한 송신자 기반의 네트워크 대역폭 측정 방법 및 비례 증가 혼잡 제어 알고리즘을 제안하며, 구현 및 실험을 통해 기존 TCP의 문제점을 해결할 수 있음을 보인다.
