Performance Evaluation of TCP Congestion Control Algorithms Over UMTS

Overview TCP congestion control was designed and optimized for wired networks. During recent years, however, the popularity of wireless network infrastructures enabling ubiquitous Internet access, such as Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS), has grown considerably. As a consequence, many improved TCP congestion control algorithms, able to effectively operate over hybrid wired/wireless networks, as well as, layer 2 optimizations, hiding to higher layers the inefficiencies of radio links, have been proposed by the scientific community. This work investigates the performance of TCP congestion control over UMTS networks.
