whitepaper Transport connections set up in wireless ad hoc networks are plagued by problems such as high bit error rates, frequent route changes, and partitions. The paper has implemented the protocol in FreeBSD, and this paper, presents results from...

whitepaper In mobile ad hoc networks, one might expect multipath routing to provide some robustness to link failures and facilitate the transmission of packets along paths that avoid regions of congestion. This paper considers TCP goodput as the metric of...
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper Mobility in ad hoc networks causes frequent link failures, which in turn causes packet losses. TCP attributes these packet losses to congestion. This incorrect inference results in frequent TCP retransmission time-outs and therefore degradation in...

whitepaper The fairness and throughput of TCP suffer when it is used in mobile ad hoc networks. This is a direct consequence of TCP wrongly attributing packet losses due to link failures (a consequence of mobility) to congestion.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper Mobility in ad hoc networks causes link failures, which in turn result in packet losses. TCP attributes these losses to congestion. This results in frequent TCP retransmission timeouts and degradation in TCP performance even at light loads.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper In mobile Ad hoc networks, the topology of the network is constantly changing as nodes move in and out of each others range, breaking and establishing links. TCP performs poorly in such networks because packets that are lost due to path...

whitepaper This paper proposes a new mechanism called TSR, TCP-aware Source Routing, which can improve TCP performance in wireless ad hoc networks. In a Mobile Ad Hoc Network, temporary link failures and route changes occur frequently.

whitepaper Ignoring the properties of wireless Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) can lead to TCP implementations with poor performance. The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) was designed to provide reliable end-to-end delivery of data over unreliable networks.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), a widely used end-to-end reliable transport protocol designed for wired networks, is not entirely suitable for wireless ad hoc networks due to the inappropriateness of TCP congestion control schemes.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper This paper explores the hypothesis of an "Ad hoc horizon" for wireless multihop networks. This horizon is defined in terms of number of nodes and number of hops beyond which TCP based network services are not useful anymore.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper Standard TCP misinterpret mobility loss in Ad hoc network as congestion loss, thus, it reduce the TCP performance by invoking unnecessary congestion control action. Analyses and simulations show that they can achieve better TCP performance in Ad...

whitepaper Since a radio channel is shared among terminals in an ad hoc network, packet collisions are frequent. In case of transmitting packets especially using TCP, data and ACK packets are transmitted in opposite directions on the same radio channel.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper Wireless ad hoc network is expected to be integrated with wired networks and many applications will communicate with TCP (Transmission Control Protocol). Many studies have been dedicated to improving the TCP performance over ad hoc networks.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper This paper studies how fairness affects the performance of TCP over ad hoc networks with IEEE 802.11 at the MAC layer. The problem addressed is that the throughput of TCP flows degrades severely in the presence of heavily loaded UDP flows.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper There are many issues that limit the performance of wireless mobile Multi-hop Ad hoc Networks (MANETs). One of them is that TCP is not well adapted to networks where routes can change or disappear often.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper In a Mobile Ad Hoc NETwork (MANET), temporary link failures and route changes happen frequently. With the assumption that all packet losses are due to congestion, TCP performs poorly in such environment.
[14 Jan 2008]
whitepaper The goodput of TCP flow over multihops ad hoc networks varies enormously with the increase of hops number between the sender and receiver. This jitter leads to the TCP instability and impediments the web applications in multihops ad hoc networks.
[08 Jan 2008]
whitepaper Analyzing transport layer operation and enhancing its performance over multihop ad hoc networks have attracted a lot of attentions. Although the fundamental reasons for the performance degradation of TCP have been studied for many years, the tight...
[08 Jan 2008]
whitepaper In these cases TCP connections will span both wireless ad hoc and wired domains. In scenarios where wireless ad hoc networks are deployed, sometimes it would be desirable that ad hoc nodes can communicate with servers in wired networks to upload or...
[08 Jan 2008]
whitepaper Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) are used for emergency situations like disaster - relief, military applications, and emergency medical situations. This paper studies the behavior of TCP based worms in MANETs.
