An Implementation of Stream Control Transmission Protocol

스트림제어 전송 프로토콜의 개발

Generally an increasing number of recent applications have found TCP too limiting. There are some characteristics in the transmission of document and binary data which some transmission delay are tolerant but the content must completely be transferred. However voice signals are more sensitive with not some packet loss but some transmission delay. Therefore, Stream Control Transmission Protocol(SCTP) is proposed to minimize the delay and packet loss in the field of delivery of voice signal. SCTP is designed to transport PSTN signalling messages over IP networks, but is capable of broader applications. In this paper, the architecture of SCTP implementation is designed and some interface of SCTP software library which are implemented are specified.
