Multiple wireless devices in wired and wireless heterogeneous networks communicate with counterparts via a single Access Point (AP). In this case, the AP becomes a bottleneck of the network, therefore buffer overflows occur frequently and result in TCP performance degradation. In this paper, the new algorithm that prevents buffer overflows at AP and enhances TCP fairness is proposed. Depending on the buffer usage of AP, the new algorithm adaptively controls each TCP senders' transmission rate, prevents buffer overflows and thus guarantees improved TCP fairness. It is proved that the algorithm makes better of TCP throughput and fairness by preventing buffer overflows.

Overall TCP performance represented by end-to-end throughput is largely dependent upon its loss recovery performance. In particular non-congestion packet losses caused by transmission errors degrade TCP performance seriously. Using Markov process, we analyze TCP loss recovery performance for correlated packet losses caused by multipath fading. The results show that loss recovery performance can be severely affected by burstiness in packet losses, even if overall packet loss ratio is very low.

Domestic wireless network environment is changing rapidly while adapting to meet service requirements of users and growth of market. As a result, reliable data transmission using TCP is also expected to increase. Since TCP assumes that it is used in wired networt TCP suffers significant performance degradation over wireless network where packet losses are not always result of network congestion. Especially RTO imposes a great performance degradation of TCP. In this paper, we propose DAC$^{＋}$ and EFR in order to prevent performance degradation by quickly detecting and recovering loss without RTO during fast recovery. Compared with TCP NewReno, proposed scheme shows improvements in steady-state in terms of higher fast recovery Probability and reduced response time.

Wireless mesh network is similar to ad-hoc network, so when transferred to the data packet in the wireless environment, interfered factor arise. When TCP(Transport Control Protocol) was created, however as it was design based on wired link, wireless link made more transmission error than wired link. It is existent problem that TCP unfairness and congestion collapse over wireless mesh network. But packet losses due to transmission errors are more frequent. The cause of transmission error in wireless ad-hoc network may be inexactly regarded as indications of network congestion. And then, Congestion Control Algorithm was running by this situation causes the TCP performance degradation. In this paper, proposed TCP can adaptively regulate the congestion window through moving node in the Wireless Mesh Network. And it enhanced the performance.

최근 이동통신 서비스의 보급이 날로 증가됨에 따라 무선 접속 인터넷 서비스이 사용에 대한 요구가 급증하고 있다. 그러나 인터넷에서 사용되는 TCP 프로토콜은 에러 발생율이 낮은 유선망을 고려하여 설계되었기 때문에 망에서 발생되는 패킷 손실을 망내의 폭주로 인한 것으로 가정하고 폭죽제어 알고리즘을 동작시켜 윈도우 크기를 줄인다. 그러나 무선통신망과 같이 에러 발생율이 높은 환경에서는 패킷 손실이 주로 엘 발생에 기인하는데, 이 경우 기존의 TCP 프로토콜을 사용하면 폭주제어 알고리즘이 동작되어 TCP의 성능을 저하시키는 문제점이 발생된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 유무선 복합망에서 TCP 프로토콜의 성능을 개선하기 위한 Split ACKs 기법을 제안하였다. 이 기법은 기지국에서 무선링크의 패킷 손실 이후에 수신된 ACK 패킷을 여러 개로 쪼개서 TCP 송신측으로 전달한다. 따라서 여러 개의 ACK 패킷을 수신한 TCP 송신측은 폭죽제어 알고리즘이 동작되어 감소시킨 윈도우 크기를 빠르게 복귀시켜 주기 때문에, 저하된 TCP 프로토콜의 성능을 신속히 향상시킬 수 있다. 아울러 제안된 기법은 기존 TCP 프로토콜을 그대로 사용할 수 있으며, TCP의 End-to-end Semantics가 유지되는 장점이 있다. 시뮬레이션을 통한 성능분석 결과 이 기법은 기존의 TCP 프로토콜에 비해 약 20%의 성능향상을 보였다.

In recent yeats, SCTP is known as the next transport layer protocol for connection-oriented and reliable data transfer after TCP/UDP. The SCTP was developed on the basis of the existing TCP and was designed to eliminate defects of TCP. SCTP has the different characteristic of multi-streaming and multi-homing from TCP. In this paper, we studied the defects of the performance of communication using the traits of multi-homing. And we evaluated the efficiency for each application services on the basis of SCTP of IPv6. Also, we analysed the delay time of a packet using SCTP and TCP. We noticed that the efficiency of SCTP is better than that of TCP.

TCP(Transmission Control Protocol)는 흐름제어와 오류제어 그리고 혼잡제어 등을 통해 목적지까지 효율적으로 데이터를 전송하는 프로토콜이다. 최근 라우터 성능 및 라우팅 알고리즘 등의 발달로 인해 패킷이 비순차적으로 전송되는 패킷 재배치(packet reordering)가 빈번한 발생하여 TCP 성능 저하의 주요 원인이 되고 있다. 패킷 재배치가 TCP 로 하여금 불필요한 재전송(Spurious Retransmission) 및 혼잡제어를 수행하도록 하기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 TCP 의 신속 재전송(Fast Retransmission)의 중복 응답 임계값(dupthresh)를 동적으로 조절함으로써, 불필요한 재전송 및 혼잡제어의 발생횟수를 효율적으로 줄이는 TCP-DAD(TCP Dynamically Adjusted Dupthresh)기법을 제안한다. 본 논문은 NS-2를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 통해 TCP-DAD 가 다른 TCP 메커니즘보다 평균적으로 약 34%의 성능 향상을 보임을 증명하였다.

TCP and UDP is a transport layer protocol of Internet. TCP is a connection oriented protocol which supports a reliable data transfer by offering error and flow control, but it bring a transmission delay. On the other hand, the UDP is a connectionless protocol which does not carry out error and flow control, but it guarantees a realtime transmission. There are hardly any protocols which supports not only realtime functions but also data reliability. In this paper, we have designed and implemented a new TCP mode option which supports reliable realtime transmission. Our designed TCP performs an error recovery process during a fixed amount of time. This time is negotiated during the connection establishment phase. Our designed TCP is tested in real environments, and we find that it is relatively faster than the standard TCP and more reliable than the UDP. It can be used for the reliable transfer of realtime multimedia data.

The performance of TCP depends on the degree of traffic congestion between the sender and the receiver. The traffic could increase, and this causes congestion which may cause trouble in data transfer. Then, TCP tries to eliminate the trouble by reducing the transfer speed with slowstart scheme. When a mobile node moves over heterogeneous wireless networks, TCP experiences dramatic change of the amount of traffic, and it performs slowstart. In this paper, we propose the efficient scheme of TCP slowstart that should performs after vertical handoff. In this scheme, TCP receiver forces slowstart, which is different form normal schemes. Its performance is better than the normal schemes in that TCP sender experiences traffic congestion and performs slowstart. We perform simulation to measure and to verify the improved performance.

Diabetic neuropathy is one of the most common diabetic complications. In clinical practices, nerve conduction velocity (NCV) has been used as a standard method for diagnosing diabetic neuropathy. However, it applies maximum of 100mA electric stimulus to nerves causing stress and pain to patients. In this study. as a non-invasive method, $TcpO_2$ was utilized to investigate the difference and relationship between $TcpO_2$ and $SpO_2$ of normal and diabetic neuropathy subjects. In addition, a new method of diagnosing diabetic neuropathy using $TcpO_2$ is suggested. 50 normal subjects and 50 diabetic patients with neuropathy diagnosed by NCV participated in this study. Parameters used in this study were $TcpO_2,\;TcpCo_2$, and $SpO_2$. As a result of the $TcpO_2$ measurements, statistical significances were found from $TcpO_2$ of hands and feet from normal and patients group (p<0.01). $SpO_2$ measured from index finger of normal and patient groups showed no statistical significance (p>0.05). On the other hand, $SpO_2$ measured from great toes of normal and patient group showed statistical significance (p<0.01). Correlation coefficient between $SpO_2$ of finger and $TcpO_2$ of hand was 0.400 (p<0.01) and $SpO_2$ of toe and $TcpO_2$ of foot was 0.471 (p<0.01). Both correlation values were statistically significant. Sensitivities and specificities of the $TcpO_2$ method were found to be 66 % and 92 %, respectively. If suggested $TcpO_2$ method is used periodically. prevention and early diagnosis of diabetic neuropathy is possible.
