TCP-ELN: Efficient Communication over Wireless Channels
As wireless technologies becoming more wide-spread, the importance of efficient communications over radio channels increases. TCP versions applied currently do not take into account the special characteristics of radio channels, thus their performance can be significantly lower compared to the available resources. In this paper, we propose a new TCP variant (called TCP-ELN) which is capable to considerably improve the transfer rate. The performance of the new solution is evaluated using simulations.
