Analytical TCP Model for Millimeter-Wave 5G NR Systems in Dynamic Human Body Blockage Environment

Abstract: Dynamic blockage of radio propagation paths between the user equipment (UE) and the 5G New Radio (NR) Base Station (BS) induces abrupt rate fluctuations that may lead to sub-optimal performance of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) protocol. In this work, we characterize the effects of dynamic human blockage on TCP throughput at the 5G NR air interface. To this aim, we develop an analytical model that expresses the TCP throughput as a function of the round-trip time (RTT), environmental, and radio system … Show more

“…The presented analysis of the propagation aspects of maritime wireless communication clearly shows why an attempt to evaluate TCP session performance using low-level parameters or even measured RTT and PER metrics of the network layer of the link can be very difficult. Although many numerical TCP models have been proposed [ 71 , 72 , 73 ], modeling link throughput using analytical formulas seems to be unreliable in real-word systems [ 74 ] due to a large number of parameters affecting this throughput. Moreover, since obtaining values of physical parameters comprehensively describing a wireless-link is difficult, the use of highly detailed analysis methods (which account for, e.g., dynamically changing TCP packet loss ratio [ 75 ]) become hard to implement in practical cases [ 76 ].…”

“…The research community has also recently focused on the evaluation of the end-to-end performance of 5th generation (5G) mmWave networks, with analysis [21], simulations [22], and experiments [23]. This has been recognized as fundamental to enable a proper design and validation of 5G technologies, given that new, unexplored technologies are being coupled with protocols and networks that have not been specifically designed for NR [11].…”
