  • Transmission control protocol friendly rate control (TFRC) is designed to mainly provide optimal service for unicast applications, such as multimedia streaming in the best-effort Internet environment. However, high bandwidth networks with large delays present an environment where TFRC may have a problem in utilizing the full bandwidth. TFRC inherits the slow-start mechanism of TCP Reno, but this is a time-consuming process that may require many round-trip-times (RTTs), until an appropriate sending rate is reached. Another disadvantage inherited from TCP Reno is the RTT-unfairness problem, which severely affects the performance of long-RTT flows. In this paper, we suggest enhanced TFRC for high quality video streaming over high bandwidth delay product networks. First, we propose a fast startup scheme that increases the data rate more aggressively than the slow-start, while mitigating the overshooting problem. Second, we propose a bandwidth estimation method to achieve more equitable bandwidth allocations among streaming flows that compete for the same narrow link with different RTTs. Finally, we improve the responsiveness of TFRC in the presence of severe congestion. Simulation results have shown that our proposal can achieve a fast startup and provide fairness with competing flows compared to the original TFRC.

  • In a wireless network, TCP causes the performance degradation because of mistaking packet loss, which is caused by characteristics of wireless link and throughput oscillation due to change of devices connected on a limited bandwidth. Delay based TCP is not affected by packet loss because it controls window size by using the RTT. Therefore, it can solve the problem of unnecessary degradation of the rate caused by misunderstanding reason of packet loss. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for improving the remaining problems by using delay based TCP. The proposed scheme can change throughput adaptively by adding the RTT, which rapidly reflects the network conditions to BaseRTT. It changes the weight of RTT and the increases and decreases window size based on the remaining amount of the buffer. The simulation indicated that proposed scheme can alleviate the throughput oscillation problem, as compared to the legacy TCP Vegas.

  • A high assurance IP encryption (HAIPE) compliant protocol accelerator is proposed for military networks consisting of red (or classified) networks and black (or unclassified) networks. The boundary between red and black sides is assumed to be protected via a HAIPE device. However, the IP layer encryption introduces challenges for bandwidth on demand satellite communication. The problems experienced by transmission control protocol (TCP) over satellites are well understood: While standard modems (on the black side) employ TCP performance enhancing proxy (PEP) which has been shown to work well, the HAIPE encryption of TCP headers renders the onboard modem's PEP ineffective. This is attributed to the fact that under the bandwidth-on-demand environment, PEP must use traditional TCP mechanisms such as slow start to probe for the available bandwidth of the link (which eliminates the usefulness of the PEP). Most implementations recommend disabling the PEP when a HAIPE device is used. In this paper, we propose a novel solution, namely broadband HAIPE-embeddable satellite communications terminal (BHeST), which utilizes dynamic network performance enhancement algorithms for high latency bandwidth-on-demand satellite links protected by HAIPE. By moving the PEP into the red network and exploiting the explicit congestion notification bypass mechanism allowed by the latest HAIPE standard, we have been able to regain PEP's desired network enhancement that was lost due to HAIPE encryption (even though the idea of deploying PEP at the modem side is not new). Our BHeST solution employs direct video broadcast-return channel service (DVB-RCS), an open standard as a means of providing bandwidth-on-demand satellite links. Another issue we address is the estimation of current satellite bandwidth allocated to a remote terminal which is not available in DVBRCS. Simulation results show that the improvement of our solution over FIX PEP is significant and could reach up to 100%. The improvement over the original TCP is even more (up to 500% for certain configurations).

  • The traditional distributed object middleware platform is not suitable for the transmission of stream data, because RPC(Remote Procedure Call)-based message transmission have a great overhead. Therefore, the OMG(Object Management Group) proposes the AV(Audio and Video) stream reference model for streaming on the distributed object middleware platform. But, this reference model has not a detail of implementation. Particularly it also has not congestion control scheme for improvement of network efficiency on the real network environment. It is a very important and difficult technical issue to provide the stream transmission platform with advanced congestion control scheme. In this paper, we propose an architecture of a distributed stream transport platform and deal with the design and implementation concept of our proposed platform. Also, we present a mechanism to improve streaming utilization by SRTP(Smart RTP). SRTP is our proposed TCP-Friendly scheme.

  • This paper aims to integrate the previous models about mean object transfer latency in one framework and analyze the result through the computational experience. The analytical object transfer latency model assumes the multiple packet losses and the Internet of Things(IoT) environment including multi-hop wireless network, where fast re-transmission is not possible due to small window. The model also considers the initial congestion window size and the multiple packet loss in one congestion window. Performance evaluation shows that the lower and upper bounds of the mean object transfer latency are almost the same when both transfer object size and packet loss rate are small. However, as packet loss rate increases, the size of the initial congestion window and the round-trip time affect the upper and lower bounds of the mean object transfer latency.

  • 최근 네트워크 기술이 발전하면서 사용자들의 요구가 다양화되고 대용량의 멀티미디어 데이터에 대한 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 실시간성과 동시성이 중요시 되는 멀티미디어 데이터의 전송에는 UDP(User Datagram Protocol)가 사용되고 있는데, UDP는 현재의 인터넷 기반인 TCP (Transmission Control Protocol )와 경쟁관계에 있어 네트워크의 혼잡을 초래하는 경우가 많았다. 또한 TCP 트랙픽은 네트워크의 혼잡제어를 수행하지만 수신자의 관점을 고려하지 않은 점이 있어서 스트리밍 전송에는 적합하지 않은 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 UDP(User Datagram Protocol) 트래픽의 네트워크 형평성 문제를 해결하고 수신자의 관점을 고려하기 위해 네트워크에 우선순위를 적용하여 RTP/RTCP를 기반으로 수신자의 버퍼를 고려한 혼잡제어 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 우선 순위가 있는 네트워크가 우선 순위가 없는 네트워크에 비해 패킷 손실률과 버퍼 점유도 면에서 스트리밍 전송에 적합한 환경을 제공하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • TFRC is an equation-based rate control scheme originally developed for video transmission over wired networks. When applied to the wireless networks, it suffers from performance degradation. In this thesis, we propose an end-to-end loss discrimination algorithm to improve the performance of TFRC over wireless networks. The proposed WLD-TFRC scheme combines Spike and WLD(Wireless Loss Discount) algorithms to discriminate wireless loss from congestion loss, and to discount feedback loss event rate. Experimental results show that WLD-TFRC outperforms the original TFRC and effectively reduce the degradation of the video quality caused by the wireless link status.

  • 상향 링크와 하향 링크의 대역폭이 다른 비대칭 망 환경에서 범용 TCP를 사용하는 경우, 상향 링크의 혼잡으로 인해 TCP의 성능이 저하되는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 하향 링크에서 데이터 세그먼트의 크기를 조정하여 상향 링크의 혼잡을 완화시키는 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 단대단 의미구조를 유지하면서 망의 상태에 따라 세그먼트의 크기를 최적으로 조절하여 응답 패킷을 최소한으로 생성하도록 하는 특징을 가지고 있다. 특히, 조정된 크기를 갖는 세그먼트가 전송 도중에 오류가 발생하는 경우에 빠른 복구를 위해 SACK를 사용한다. 또한, 혼잡 제어 구간에서는 세그먼트의 크기를 조절하지 않도록 하여 줄어든 응답 패킷의 수로 인한 성능 감소를 방지한다.
