“…( 15) where R t is the current smoothed estimate of RTT, V, -is the current smoothed estimate of the deviation in RTT, and K is a constant factor (typically K=4), which adjusts the measured averaged retransmission timeout with respect to its variance (Phatak and Goff, 2002). R t and V, -are defined by the following recursive equations:…”

“…We assume that r^ <r 2 . (22) In standard TCP, the value of K is typically set to 4 (Jacobson et al, 1992;Phatak and Goff, 2002). It forces us to set the value of g 2 2 greater than 0.125, that is b\ < 7b 2 -In other words, if only the bandwidth over the faster path is less than 7 times of the slower path, retransmission timeouts will not occur regardless of the delay of two paths.…”

“…Recent studies have suggested that concurrent multi-path transfer (CMT) (Phatak and Goff, 2002;Hsieh and Sivakumar, 2005;Iyengar et al, 2006;Liao et al, 2008) is an effective traffic engineering technique to improve throughput by aggregation of bandwidth, especially for the high-bandwidth applications such as video sharing/download/streaming. Other benefits include increased service reliability, latency reduction, and fault tolerance by sending redundant data over different paths, and enhanced mobility when combining coverage areas of multiple mobile and wireless access networks.…”

One major problem of concurrent multi-path transfer (CMT) scheme in multi-homed mobile networks is that the utilization of different paths with diverse delays may cause packet reordering among packets of the same flow. In the case of TCP-like, the reordering exacerbates the problem by bringing more timeouts and unnecessary retransmissions, which eventually degrades the throughput of connections considerably. To address this issue, we first propose an Out-of-order Scheduling for In-order Arriving (OSIA), which exploits the sending time discrepancy to preserve the in-order packet arrival. Then, we formulate the optimal traffic scheduling as a constrained optimization problem and derive its closedform solution by our proposed progressive water-filling solution. We also present an implementation to enforce the optimal scheduling scheme using cascaded leaky buckets with multiple faucets, which provides simple guidelines on maximizing the utilization of aggregate bandwidth while decreasing the probability of triggering 3 dupACKs. Compared with previous work, the proposed scheme has lower computation complexity and can also provide the possibility for dynamic network adaptability and finer-grain load balancing. Simulation results show that our scheme significantly alleviates reordering and enhances transmission performance.

“…One example is the multi-link Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) [165], which attempts to bundle multiple datalink level access channels into a single logical link. However, it is highly unlikely that the independent Internet Service Providers (ISPs) will allow arbitrary users to bundle their links into "one logical link" [166].…”

This thesis proposes a novel consumer-oriented Incoming Call Connection (ICC) service as an important enabling infrastructural component of the recently proposed ubiquitous consumer wireless world (UCWW), a new Consumer-centric Business Model (CBM) environment for wireless communications. The ICC solution proposed here will be offered by third-party providers who are autonomous of the access network providers. Compared to the present ICC service in the legacy subscriber-based networks, the consumeroriented ICC service will offer to mobile users greater flexibility and management control over incoming calls, enable users to receive incoming calls via multiple access networks/providers by means of a single identity, support user-driven, seamless, network-transparent Hot Access network Change (HAC), largely eliminate roaming charges and develop a new wireless networking business opportunity among other ben- Furthermore, the thesis elaborates a generic CBM-ICC service scenario, which shows how the CBM-ICC service offers to mobile users greater freedom and operation control over incoming calls, enables the novel attribute of users being empowered to receive incoming calls simultaneously, and otherwise, from various homogeneous and heterogeneous access networks, owned by the same or different providers, and enables user-driven HAC on active calls in keeping with, or matched to, user's Always Best Connected and Best Served (ABC&S) policies. A CBM-ICC proof-of-concept system-level testbed is implemented to perform experimental tests, probe different communications scenarios, evaluate the service performance, and further elaborate the service architecture. In this, approaches towards evaluating the performance of the CBM-ICC service based on designed testbed are elaborated, and sample numerical results are presented and analyzed.

“…This is called the multi path routing [8][9]. Recent researches [1][2][3][4] have shown that the data flow between the source and destination MANET nodes could be speeded up if it is efficiently split on multiple paths between them. The source node will estimate how busy these paths are and send packets to these paths according to its estimation.…”

Abstract-It is expected that future ITS (Intelligent Transport System) network will involve a lot of mobile equipments and form a complex network. Maintaining the good performance of this complex network is a complicated task, and efficient load balancing plays an important role. In this paper, a new load balancing solution is proposed. In this solution, the load balancing is performed by the source node based on the probe packets sent by the destination node. Doing so will reduce the number of probe packets to half. A new formula for available bandwidth estimation of 802.11 ad hoc network is also presented. The simulation results show that the proposed solution has improved the connection throughput significantly.
