This paper has defined the 3G and beyond wireless networks as the one that is based on IP network architecture and proposed the congestion control scheme in the access networks. Basically the proposed method is built on the ECN(Explicit Congestion Notification) and utilizing the advantages of the wireless and I networks in broadcasting packet in their access network. Consequently it provides the efficiency in controlling the congestion that can be happened by the mobility support in the future wireless networks.

Transmission Control Protocol as a transport layer protocol provides steady data transfer service. There are some serious concerns about the performance of TCP over diverse networks. The vital concern in TCP network environment is congestion which may occur due to quick transmission rates or because of large number of new connections entering the network at the same time. Size of queues in routers grows thus resulting in packet drops. Retransmission of the dropped packets, and reduced throughput can prove costly. Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) in conjunction with Active Queue Management mechanisms (AQM) such as Random early detection (RED) is used for packet marking rather than dropping. In IP packet header ECN bits can be added as a sign of congestion thus avoiding needless packet drops. The proposed ECN and AQM mechanism can be implemented with help of ns2 simulator and the performance can be tested on different TCP variants.

Per-packet scheduling is more suitable than per-flow scheduling to reduce the flow completion time by efficiently utilizing resources in data center networks. Recently, many per-packet scheduling schemes utilizing multiple paths have been proposed. However, to mitigate the negative effect of packet reordering on TCP performance, most of the schemes require supplemental measures such as putting packets in order at the lower layer. In this study, we investigate how well DCTCP, which is a representative TCP for data center networks, performs with per-packet scheduling through simulation. Simulation results show that DCTCP keeps the queue length short but that DCTCP shows low fairness due to the way of reducing the congestion window by ECN.
