It has been occurred many times that wireless sensor networks (WSNs) had congested areas because all the sensing data collected by multiple sensor nodes are delivered to one sink node. Typically, in order to control congested areas, it used to reduce the traffic by increasing the sensing period or discarding packets. However, those schemes have a disadvantage that it loses the reliability when delivering sensing data. Moreover, there are no schemes considering case of having poor quality of links between nodes in practical terms. In this paper, we suggest a scheme not to reduce the traffic but to distribute the traffic by changing routing paths depends on the traffic and the quality of links. Also, it can be seen that the reliability of delivering of the sensing data is improved with the experiments improving collection rates and shortening end-to-end delay.

In recent years, there have been many researches about Ad-hoc Networks which is available to communicate freely between mobile devices by using multi-hop without any support of relay base or access point. TCP that used the most widely transport protocol in the Internet repeats packet loss and retransmission because it increases congestion window size by using reactive congestion control until packet loss occurs. As a result of this, energy of mobile device is wasted unnecessarily. In this paper, we propose TCP-New Veno in order to improve the energy efficiency of mobile device. According to the state of network, the scheme adjusts appropriate size of congestion window. Therefore, the energy efficiency of mobile device and utilization of bandwidth are improved by the scheme. From the simulation by using ns-2, we could see more improved energy efficiency with TCP-New Veno than those with TCP in Ad-hoc Networks.

Large-scale wireless sensor networks are constructed by using a large number of sensor nodes that are non-uniformly deployed over a wide area. As a result, the data collected by the sensor nodes are similar to that from one another since a high density of the sensor nodes may cause an overlap. As a result of the characteristics of the traffic, data is collected from a plurality of sensor nodes by a sink node, and when the sensor nodes transmit their collected data to the sink node, the sensor nodes around the sink node have a higher amount of traffic than the sensor nodes far away from the sink node. Thus, the former sensor encounter bottlenecks due to traffic congestion and have an energy hole problem more often than the latter ones, increasing energy consumption. This paper proposes a congestion control scheme that considers traffic flows in order to control traffic congestion of the sensor nodes that are non-uniformly deployed over a large-scale wireless sensor network.

본 논문은 TCP의 무선 환경에서의 전송 성능 감소와 패킷 왕복 시간에 따른 대역폭 선점 문제를 해결하기 위한 타이머 기반의 혼잡 제어 방식을 제안한다. TCP는 패킷 손실 확률이 많은 무선 환경에서 네트워크 혼잡에 의한 패킷 손실을 방지하기 위한 느린 전송률 증가로 인해 전송 성능이 크게 떨어진다. 또한, TCP 송신자는 전송률을 결정하는 전송 윈도우를 수신자로부터 응답 메시지를 받을 때만 조정시키므로, 패킷의 왕복 시간의 차이에 따른 전송률 편중 현상과 다수개의 응답 메시지에 의한 과도한 트래픽 발생의 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 타이머 기반의 TCP 혼잡 제어 방식은 패킷의 전송 시간 간격을 타이머로 조정함으로써 무선 환경에서 전송 성능을 향상시키고 패킷의 왕복 시간 차이에 따른 전송률 편중 현상을 완화시키며 다수개의 응답 메시지에 의한 과도한 트래픽의 발생을 제한한다. 제안하는 방법은 실제 환경에서 구현되었으며, 다양한 네트워크 환경에서의 실험을 통해 그 성능을 입증하였다.

최근 사물지능통신에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 중이다. 사물지능통신은 인간의 개입 없이 네트워크를 통해 사물 또는 기기들 사이에서 데이터를 주고 받는 통신으로 정의하고 있다. 사물지능통신을 위한 네트워크 인프라 기술에 대한 논의가 3GPP, ISO, IETF 등에서 활발히 논의 중이다. 더불어 사물지능통신의 응용에 따라서 기반 인프라가 결정될 것으로 보고 있다. 특히 3GPP에서는 LTE 네트워크 기반의 Machine Type Communications 기술 표준 기술이 논의 중이다. 본 논문에서는 사물지능 통신에 사용될 인프라 기술에 대해서 장단점을 정의하고 기존 인프라 기반에서 Machine Type Communications 서비스를 제공할 시 발생할 수 있는 혼잡 상황을 정의하고 이를 해결하기 위한 혼잡 제어 기술을 제안한다.

TCP congestion control algorithm prevents network congestion through the control of outgoing traffic size. The network, therefore, should monitor the incoming traffic size of a TCP to determine whether or not a TCP follows standard congestion control algorithms. Some TCP friendly test algorithms are proposed, But, these algorithms cannot be used in real environments because a router in a network does not know the RTT of a TCP flow. In this study, we propose a new RTT determination algorithm that can be used in a router. Our proposed algorithms is validated through the simulation studies.

In this paper, we proposed an enhanced TCP congestion control algorithm using RTT with congestion window parameter cwnd to minimize the effect of TCP congestion. The proposed scheme could avoid the occurrence of frequent congestion and decrease the delay caused by the recovery time and the using amount of switch buffer. Through the simulation, we showed that the proposed scheme cm acquire higher performance than the existing scheme. There are 22.56％ improvement at the average using buffer efficiency, and packet drop rate is 0.1％ which is less than existing scheme.

We analyzed that the loss of data in TCP protocol based wireless networks caused by overlapped responses in bi-directional nodes that were resulted in out of the data sequence. This loss can be prevented by using revised TCP rate control algorithm and the performance of throughput can also be improved. The rate control algorithm is applied when the congestion happens between nodes while traffic packets are retransmitting in TCP bandwidth. In addition to applying the rate control algorithm, we determine the number of system clients in bandwidth and the average of pausing time between transmitting serial files to produce a competitive level so that an efficient performance of rapid retransmitting for the loss of multi-packets. This paper discusses the improvement of congestion control in that the decrease of the loss, firstly, as ensuring an efficient connection rate and, secondly, as using sliding window flow control.

It is important to improve TCP performance in Self-similar TCP network where signalling between the same end nodes through bidirectional traffic routes. In wireless link, the traffic limitation pattern occurred in two or more TCP connections is applied into MPEC video control as multi time-interval congestion control. For TCP update variable, we extend TCP and perform as function call, and we study a method of relating TCP with LTS module controlling with the information type that is overcoming the limit of feedback loop determined by RTT. For comparison, we measure the TCP throughput without LTS and verify the fairness by means of meta control. The improved TCP performance is shown by that the number of connections of traffic congestion control increases when RTT increases.

The optical Internet is considered as a feasible solution for transporting huge amount of traffic volume in the future Internet. Among optical switching technology for the optical Internet, OBS becomes one of the most promoting solution. Recently, a lebeled OBS(LOBS) architecture is considered for an efficient control on OBS network. Given that a data burst may contain few thousands of IP packets, a single loss of data burst results in a serious throughput degradation in LOBS network. In this paper, we improve the performance of LOBS network by introducing the burst congestion control mechanism. More specifically, the OBS router at the network core detects the network congestion by measuring the loss probability of burst control packet. The OBS router at the network edge reduces the burst generation according to the network condition repored by the OBS router at the network core. Through the simulations, it is shown that the proposed congestion control mechanism can reduce the burst loss probability and improve the LOBS network throughput.
