“…Some pointers to the literature in this area include Liu and Singh [2001], who designed a thin layer between Internet protocol and standard TCP called ATCP to improve the performance of TCP over MANETs; Chandran et al [2001], who proposed a feedback-based scheme where the source is sent a Route Failure Notification (RFN) when the route is disrupted. Jiang et al [2001] studied the performance of TCP Reno, NewReno, SACK, and Vegas in MANETs Kim et al [2000] proposed the TCP-BuS protocol where each node can buffer packets during the route disconnection and reestablishment. Additionally, they incorporate new measures to deal with the reliable transmission of important control messages.…”

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is the most commonly used transport protocol on the Internet. All indications assure that mobile computers and their wireless communication links will be an integral part of the future internetworks. In this paper, we present how regular TCP is well tuned to react to packet loss in wired networks. We then define mobility and the problems associated with it. We discuss why regular TCP is not suitable for mobile hosts and their wireless links by providing simulation results that demonstrate the effect of the high bit error rates of the wireless link on TCP performance. We discuss and illustrate the problems caused by the mobility of hosts using a graph tracing packets between fixed and mobile hosts. We then present a survey of the research done to improve the performance of TCP over mobile wireless networks. We classify the proposed solutions into three categories: link layer, end-to-end and split. We discuss the intuition behind each solution and present example protocols of each category. We discuss the protocols functionality, their strengths and weaknesses. We also provide a comparison of the different approaches in the same category and on the category level. We conclude this survey with a recommendation of the features that need to be satisfied in a standard mobile TCP protocol.

“…Other ways, including TCP SACk, TCP Veges, TCP NewReno, TCP Westwood, TCP Peach and P-Start, etc, are to estimate the network condition through ACK return information and make it into a different stage of TCP. TCP SACk [2] method can improve the efficiency of the retransmission according to retransmit multiple missing data which is additional in the ACK information and including the disorderly data in a RTT period; TCP Veges [2] method calculates the optimal network throughput by round-trip time delay and then adjust the congestion window size according to the backlog of the amount of data in transmission pipeline which is get on the basis of the relationship between the optimal throughput and the sending rate; TCP Veno method is a further version of TCP Vegas, the method judge the congestion through the threshold value of the backlog of data; TCP NewReno [3] method considers that the quickly recover algorithm should not stop until multiple data lost happened; TCP Westwood [4] method get network resources according to the time of arrival of the ACK message; TCP Peach method adds suddenly start and fast recovery algorithms on the basis of congestion avoidance and fast retransmission algorithm; P-Start method is a grading mechanism of TCP slow Start [5].…”

Abstract-The transmit control protocol is used more and more widely as the development of mobile wireless network IP based and the need of high reliable data transmission in the unstable environment, but it has a poor performance due to the complex wireless channel and the variable network structure. Two TCP enhancement modules named unilateral TCP-accelerate module and parallel TCP-accelerate module were designed and imported to a test wireless network and a 3G system after analyzing the shortcoming of standard TCP and summarizing the popular TCP enhancement technologies. It proved that the modules designed which are easy to employ and flexible can improve the performance of TCP significant and can be used for reliable and burst transmission of broadband data in the mobile wireless network IP based.

In this paper, we present a reliable congestion control mechanism for geocasting in mobile wireless networks. Our protocol can be used as an extension to conventional multicasting protocols in order to overcome the problems associated with terminal mobility and the wireless environment. We present the architecture and implementation of the Multicast ACK Aggregation Method (MAAM). And test the performance of MAAM in various scenarios. Our simulation results show the efficiency and reliability of MAAM in wireless networks with high bit error rates. We further enhance the performance of MAAM by designing MAAM with local recovery (MAAM/LR).
