Recently the multimedia streaming traffic 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 through the Internet, does not apply any congestion control mechanism to regulate the data flow through the shared network. If this trend is let go unchecked, these traffic will effect the performance of TCP, which is used to transport data traffic, and may lead to congestion collapse of the Internet. To avoid any adverse effort on the current Internet functionality, A study on a new protocol of modification or addition of some functionality to existing transport protocol for transmitting streaming traffic in the Internet is needed. TCP-frienly congestion control mechanism is classified with window-based congestion control scheme and rate-based congestion control scheme. 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 rate-based congestion control for multimedia streaming in the internet.

TCP receivers deliver ACK packets to senders for reliable end-to-end transfer. When ACK packets are not transferred properly because of network congestion, the performance of TCP degrades. This paper proposes a reverse congestion warning mechanism and a congestion handling mechanism in heterogeneous networks with heavy background traffic in the backward direction. Help from TCP receivers or hardware such as routers and gateways other than the ACK packets themselves is not necessary. TCP senders compare the arrival intervals of ACK data passed from receivers and the difference in t imestamp values echoed by receivers. According to the simulation results using the NS-2 network simulator, the proposed scheme shows a performance elevation of 20% greater than Reno, 150% greater than New Reno, and 450% greater than Westwood, respectively, under heterogeneous networks and that the error rate of the radio link is 1% when the backward network is congested.

TCP is popular protocol for reliable data delivery in the Internet. In recent years, wireless environments with transmission errors are becoming more common. Therefore, there is significant interest in using TCP over wireless links. Previous works have shown that, unless the protocol is modified, TCP may perform poorly on paths that include a wireless link subject to transmission errors. The reason for this is the implicit assumption in TCP that all packet losses are due to congestion which causes unnecessary reduction of transmission rate when the cause of packet losses are wireless transmission errors. In this paper, we propose a new LDA that monitors the network congestion level using ROTT. And we evaluate the performance of our scheme and compare with TCP Veno, Spike scheme with NS2(Network Simulator 2). In the result of our experiment, our scheme reduces the packet loss misclassification to maximum 55% of other schemes. And the results of another simulation show that our scheme raise its transmission rate with the fairness preserved.

In the land mobile satellite (LMS) communication, a hybrid satellite-terrestrial relay networks (HSTRNs) using a maximal ratio combining (MRC) scheme are widely used to enhance the quality of signal from a satellite. In this paper, we derive equations for the TCP throughput and the spectral efficiency in the HSTRN and analyze results of the performance evaluation for TCP in various environments. In the simulation results, it is shown that increasing the number of terrestrial relays can enhance the TCP throughput and spectral efficiency thanks to the MRC scheme. However, the usage of the static number of terrestrial relays considering no channel states would cause the overhead. Furthermore, it has a limitation to enhance the network performance by only MRC scheme in HSTRN because the TCP performance is sensitive to the packet los rate. Therefore, we discuss the possible solutions that can additionally enhance the network performance and reduce the overhead.

HTTP Adaptive Streaming (HAS) is a technique that adapts its video quality to network conditions for providing Quality of Experience. In the HAS approach, a video content is encoded at multiple bitrates and the encoded video content is divided into several video segments. A HAS player estimates the network bandwidth and adjusts the video bitrate based on estimated bandwidth. However, the segment scheduler in the conventional HAS player requests video segments periodically without considering TCP. If the waiting duration for the next segment request is quite long, the TCP connection can be initialized and it restarts slow-start. Slow-start causes the reduction in TCP throughput and consequentially leads to low-quality video streaming. In this study, we propose a TCP-aware segment scheduling scheme to improve performance of HAS service. The proposed scheme adjusts request time for the next video request to prevent initialization of TCP connection and also considers the point of scheduling time. The simulation proves that our scheme improves the Quality of Service of the HAS service without buffer underflow issue.

In this paper, we proposed a faulty pattern detection algorithm of TCP(Tape Carrier Package)/COF(Chip On Film), and implemented a real-time system for inspecting TCP/COF. Since TCP/COF has very high resolution having several micro meters, the human operator should visually inspect all the parts through microscope. In this work, we implement an inspection system to detect the faulty pattern, so the operator can visually inspect only the designated parts by the inspection system through the monitor. The proposed defects detection algorithm for TCP/COF packages is implemented by the pattern matching method based on subtracting the reference image from test image. To evaluate performance of the proposal system. we made various experiments according to type of CCD camera and light source as well as illumination projection method. From experimental results, it is confirmed that the proposed system makes it possible to detect effectively the defective TCP/COF film.

In the integrated wired/wireless network which consists of the Internet and moving networks, multiple wireless links are used to connect a fixed host(FH) in the Internet to a mobile host(MH) in the moving network. For use in such an environment, we propose a scheme to overcome the TCP performance degradation due to the packet losses over the wireless links without losing the end-to-end TCP semantics. The proposed scheme in each mobile router(MR) allows to obtain the information regarding packet losses over the upstream wireless links based on the received packet sequence number and the ACK number. This information is delivered to the upstream router, which enables the upstream access router(AR) or MR to quickly retransmit the lost packets. The proposed scheme has the feature to quickly recover the packet losses incurred over the upstream wireless links and the performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated through simulation. It is shown that the significant performance gain can be obtained using the proposed scheme compared with the snoop mechanism which maintains end-to-end TCP semantics and does not require any additional features at the source and/or destination nodes.

Many small-sized real-time kernels do not provide memory management and device drivers, not to mention file management. In this paper, we propose a design and implementation of TCP/IP protocol stack for such small real-time kernels based on [6] where we studied issues to be considered for porting the functionalities of TCP/IP for such small real-time kernels.

This paper proposes a systematic approach to the rate-based feedback control based on the supervisory control framework for discrete event systems. We design the supervisor to achieve the desired behavior for TCP wireless networks. From the analysis and simulation results, it is shown that the controlled networks guarantee the fair sharing of the available bandwidth and avoid the packet loss caused by the buffer overflow of TCP wireless networks.

TCP does not distinguish between congestion and packet losses due to route change and link failures, which are prevalent in mobile ad hoc networks. So, TCP does not show satisfactory performance in ad hoc networks since it assumes that all packet losses are due to network congestions. In particular, when a route is reestablished it needs to be adaptively determined CWND according to the new route features. In this paper, we proposed CWND adjustment scheme to improve the TCP performance overad hoc networks. TCP sender effectively adjusts CWND by monitoring the network situation using control packets. Simulation results using NS-2 show that the proposed scheme increases TCP throughput compared with those of general TCP.
