TCP Over GPRS: The Effect of Preemption

Overview GPRS extends the widely deployed GSM with a more efficient wireless Internet access. This paper presents measurements of GPRS traffic when preempted circuit-switched calls. The results indicate that TCP performance is degraded more than necessary, as buffered data is flushed immediately when the GPRS traffic is preempted. The required for error recovery is considerable also for very preemption periods.
