We would like to pay our gratitude to CHALMERS for providing us necessary equipment.

Last but not the least we are grateful to our parents for encouraging us to achieve our goal. Abstract TCP is a reliable protocol which is capable of handling retransmission and packet loss. In TCP, packet loss is not expected to have a noticeable impact on bandwidth. However, performance was affected even at low packet loss rates (1%) and with an increased rate of packet loss, a drastic drop was observed. To uncover the cause of this unexpected behavior of TCP, a deep analysis of TCP has been accomplished. In this paper we have done a comparison between three different congestion control algorithms (Cubic, Reno and H_TCP) and a deeper analysis of Reno by means of several experimental tests in when the link experiences Data loss and ACK loss. Initially different TCP congestion control algorithms were used to observe their influence on bandwidth rate. Subsequently the TCP variables i.e. advanced window scaling, ECN value, window scaling, TCP no-metric-save value were changed to examine their role in obtaining adequate bandwidth rate with respect to packet drop. In addition to our experimental results, we also include some possible reasons behind the drastic drop in performance rate which was observed. Moreover, experimental results show that the congestion control algorithm H-TCP performed better than Cubic and Reno while link was experiencing packet loss. However, ACK loss didn‟t affect performance that much, and up to 50% loss of ACKs could be tolerated with almost no performance degradation. Keywords: TCP congestion control algorithms, TCP variables, Data loss, ACK loss, Packet loss, Bandwidth rate etc. Table of Content Chapter 1: Introduction

LTE improves system performance by competitiveness of Universal Mobile Telecommunications System using wider bandwidths if the spectrum is available [2]. (UMTS) for the next 10 years and beyond. The concepts for LTE systems have been introduced in 3GPP release 8, with objective of Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network Long-Term high-data-rate, low-latency and packet-optimized radio access Evolution (UTRAN LTE), also known as Evolved UTRAN technology. In this paper, performance of different TCP variants (EUTRAN) is a new radio access technology proposed by the during LTE network investigated. The performance of TCP over 3GPP to provide a very smooth migration towards fourth LTE is affected mostly by the links of the wired network and total generation (4G) network [3]. EUTRAN is a system currently bandwidth available at the serving base station. This paper describes under development within 3GPP. LTE systems is under an NS-2 based simulation analysis of TCP-Vegas, TCP-Tahoe, TCP- Reno, TCP-Newreno, TCP-SACK, and TCP-FACK, with full developments now, and the TCP protocol is the most widely modeling of all traffics of LTE system.

All rights reserved 2 of 16 Traffic Management in Multi-Service Access Networks MR-404 Executive Summary Traffic Management is a widespread industry practice for ensuring that networks operate efficiently, including mechanisms such as queueing, routing, restricting or rationing certain traffic on a network, and/or giving priority to some types of traffic under certain network conditions, or at all times. The goal is to minimize the impact of congestion in networks on the traffic’s Quality of Service. It can be used to achieve certain performance goals, and its careful application can ultimately improve the quality of an end user's experience in a technically and economically sound way, without detracting from the experience of others. Several Traffic Management mechanisms are vital for a functioning Internet carrying all sorts of Over-the-Top (OTT) applications in “Best Effort” mode. Another set of Traffic Management mechanisms is also used in networks involved in a multi-service context, to provide differentiated treatment of various services (e.g.

The heterogeneous networks trigger frequently the congestion and influence indirectly the application of IoT. The traditional TCP will highly possible to be reformed supporting the IoT. In this paper, we find the different characteristics of packet loss in hybrid wireless and wired channels, and develop a novel congestion control called NB-TCP (Naive Bayesian) in IoT. NB-TCP constructs a Naive Bayesian distinguisher model, which can capture the packet loss state and effectively classify the packet loss types from the wireless or the wired. More importantly, it cannot cause too much load on the network, but has fast classification speed, high accuracy and stability. Simulation results using NS2 show that NB-TCP achieves up to 0.95 classification accuracy and achieves good throughput, fairness and friendliness in the hybrid network.

  • The Effects of Different Congestion Control Algorithms Over Multipath Fast Ethernet Ipv4/Ipv6 Environments
    Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Applied Informatics Eger, Hungary, January 29–31, 2020, published at http://ceur-ws.org The Effects of Different Congestion Control Algorithms over Multipath Fast Ethernet IPv4/IPv6 Environments Szabolcs Szilágyi, Imre Bordán Faculty of Informatics, University of Debrecen, Hungary [email protected] [email protected] Abstract The TCP has been in use since the seventies and has later become the predominant protocol of the internet for reliable data transfer. Numerous TCP versions has seen the light of day (e.g. TCP Cubic, Highspeed, Illinois, Reno, Scalable, Vegas, Veno, etc.), which in effect differ from each other in the algorithms used for detecting network congestion. On the other hand, the development of multipath communication tech- nologies is one today’s relevant research fields. What better proof of this, than that of the MPTCP (Multipath TCP) being integrated into multiple operating systems shortly after its standardization. The MPTCP proves to be very effective for multipath TCP-based data transfer; however, its main drawback is the lack of support for multipath com- munication over UDP, which can be important when forwarding multimedia traffic. The MPT-GRE software developed at the Faculty of Informatics, University of Debrecen, supports operation over both transfer protocols. In this paper, we examine the effects of different TCP congestion control mechanisms on the MPTCP and the MPT-GRE multipath communication technologies. Keywords: congestion control, multipath communication, MPTCP, MPT- GRE, transport protocols. 1. Introduction In 1974, the TCP was defined in RFC 675 under the Transmission Control Pro- gram name.

Dynamic behavior of a normal network has been simulated using Linux and the Network Emulator (NetEm). Peoples’ perceptions on the quality of the received video were used in rating the qualities of several videos with differing speeds. In accordance with ITU’s guideline of using Mean Opinion Scores (MOS), the effects of packet drops were analyzed. Excel and Matlab were used as tools in analyzing the peoples’ opinions which indicates the impacts that different loss rates has on the transmitted videos.

Packet Loss and Reasons Introduction This Document To stream high quality video, i.e. to transmit real-time video streams, over IP networks is a demanding endeavor and, depending on network conditions, may result in packets being dropped or “lost” for a variety of reasons, thus negatively impacting the quality of user experience (QoE). This document looks at typical reasons and causes for what is generally referred to as “packet loss” across various types of IP networks, whether of the managed and conditioned type with a defined Quality of Service (QoS), or the “unmanaged” kind such as the vast variety of individual and interconnected networks across the globe that collectively constitute the public Internet (“the Internet”). The purpose of this document is to encourage operators and enterprises that wish to overcome streaming video quality problems to explore potential solutions. Proven technology exists that enables transmission of real-time video error-free over all types of IP networks, and to perform live broadcasting of studio quality content over the “unmanaged” Internet! Core Protocols of the Internet Protocol Suite The Internet Protocol (IP) is the foundation on which the Internet was built and, by extension, the World Wide Web, by enabling global internetworking.
