TCP, which was developed on the basis of wired links, supposes that packet losses are caused by network congestion. In a wireless network, however, packet losses due to data corruption occur frequently. Since TCP does not distinguish loss types, it applies its congestion control mechanism to non-congestion losses as well as congestion losses. As a result, the throughput of TCP is degraded. To solve this problem of TCP over wireless links, previous researches, such as split-connection and end-to-end schemes, tried to distinguish the loss types and applied the congestion control to only congestion losses; yet they do nothing for non-congestion losses. We propose a novel transport protocol for wireless networks. The protocol called VS-TCP (Variable Segment size Transmission Control Protocol) has a reaction mechanism for a non-congestion loss. VS-TCP varies a segment size according to a non-congestion loss rate, and therefore enhances the performance. If packet losses due to data corruption occur frequently, VS-TCP decreases a segment size in order to reduce both the retransmission overhead and packet corruption probability. If packets are rarely lost, it increases the size so as to lower the header overhead. Via simulations, we compared VS-TCP and other schemes. Our results show that the segment-size variation mechanism of VS-TCP achieves a substantial performance enhancement.

위성 통신은 넓은 지역에 통신 서비스를 제공하는 광역 네트워크이다. 하지만, 위성 통신은 대역폭이 제한되고 매우 긴 전파 지연 시간과 높은 BER(Bit Error Rate)로 인해 위성 통신을 고려하지 않은 TCP의 성능이 저하 된다. 본 논문에서는 위성 통신에서의 TCP 성능을 향상시키기 위해 DVB-RCS(Digital Video Broadcasting-Return Channel via Satellite) 네트워크 환경을 고려한 cross-layer 기반 PEP(Performance Enhancing Proxy) 기술을 제안한다. 제안하는 프로토콜은 TCP와 링크 계층 간 위성 자원 할당 정보를 정보 교환을 통해 최적의 TCP CWND(Congestion Window)를 설정한다. 제안한 프로토콜의 성능 평가를 위해 리눅스 기반의 PEP 테스트 베드를 구현하였다. 성능 평가 결과 다양한 BER에서 제안한 프로토콜은 위성 자원 할당 정보를 이용하여 최적의 TCP CWND 크기를 설정하기 때문에 단일 및 다중 세션 환경에서 기존 TCP 보다 제안한 프로토콜이 더 좋은 성능을 보여준다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

A small size and light-weight DSP board is newly designed for a real time multi-distributed control system that overcomes constraints on time and space. There are a variety of protocols for a real-time distributed control system. In this research, we selected CAN for the multi distributed control, which was developed by the BOSCH in the early 1980's. If CAN and Internet are connected together, the system attains the characteristics of a distributed control system and a remote control system simultaneously. To build such a system. The TCP/IP-CAN Gateway which converts a CAN protocol to TCP/IP protocol and vice verse, was designed. Moreover, the system is required to be small and light-weighted for the high mobility and cost effectiveness. The equipment in remote place has a TCP/IP-CAN Gateway on itself to be able to communicate with another systems. The received commands in the remote site are converted from TCP/IP protocol to CAN protocol by the TCP/IP-CAN Gateway in real time. A simulation system consists of a TCP/IP-CAN Gateway in remote place and a command PC to be connected to Ethernet.

Real-time multimedia streaming over the Internet is rapidly increasing with the popularity of user-created contents, Web 2.0 trends, and P2P (peer-to-peer) delivery support. While many homes today are broadband-enabled, the quality of experience (QoE) of a user is still limited due to frequent interruption of media playout. The vulnerability of TCP (transmission control protocol), the popular transport-layer protocol for streaming in practice, to the packet losses, retransmissions, and timeouts makes it hard to deliver a timely and persistent flow of packets for online multimedia contents. This paper presents TCP-real-time online multimedia environment (ROME), a novel transport-layer framework that allows the establishment and coordination of multiple many-to-one TCP connections. Between one client with multiple home addresses and multiple co-located or distributed servers, TCP-ROME increases the total throughput by aggregating the resources of multiple TCP connections. It also overcomes the bandwidth fluctuations of network bottlenecks by dynamically coordinating the streams of contents from multiple servers and by adapting the streaming rate of all connections to match the bandwidth requirement of the target video.

The current multihome-aware protocols (like stream control transmission protocol (SCTP) or parallel TCP for concurrent multipath data transfer (CMT) are not designed for high-capacity and large-latency networks; they often have performance problems transferring large data files over shared long-distance wide area networks. It has been shown that SCTP-CMT is more sensitive to receive buffer (rbuf) constraints, and this rbuf-blocking problem causes considerable throughput loss when multiple paths are used simultaneously. In this research paper, we demonstrate the weakness of SCTP-CMT rbuf constraints, and we then identify that rbuf-blocking problem in SCTP multihoming is mostly due to its loss-based nature for detecting network congestion. We present a simulation-based performance comparison of FAST TCP versus SCTP in high-speed networks for solving a number of throughput issues. This work proposes an end-to-end transport layer protocol (i.e., FAST TCP multihoming as a reliable, delaybased, multihome-aware, and selective ACK-based transport protocol), which can transfer data between a multihomed source and destination hosts through multiple paths simultaneously. Through extensive ns-2 simulations, we show that FAST TCP multihoming achieves the desired goals under a variety of network conditions. The experimental results and survey presented in this research also provide an insight on design decisions for the future high-speed multihomed transport layer protocols.

본 논문에서는 위성 통신에서 신뢰성 향상을 위한 랜덤 선형 네트워크 코딩 적용 기술을 제안한다. 제안하는 프로토콜에서는 PEP (Performance Enhancement Proxy)에서 네트워크 코딩된 여분의 패킷을 전송하여 만약 데이터 패킷이 무선 채널 에러에 의해 손실되었다 할지라도 복구 할 수 있다. 또한 본 논문에서는 제안한 프로토콜을 위성 통신에 적용했을 때의 TCP 처리율 수학적 모델을 제시하고 제안한 프로토콜의 성능을 평가했다. 성능 평가 결과, 제안하는 프로토콜은 발신 측 PEP에서 여분의 네트워크 코딩된 패킷을 전송하고 수신 측 PEP에서 여분의 네트워크 코딩된 패킷을 이용하여 손실된 패킷을 복구하기 때문에 패킷 손실률을 감소시켜 기존 TCP보다 처리율 측면에서 우수한 성능을 나타냈다.

Many small-sized real-time kernels do not provide memory management and device drivers, not to mention file management. In this paper, we propose a design and implementation of TCP/IP protocol stack for such small real-time kernels based on [6] where we studied issues to be considered for porting the functionalities of TCP/IP for such small real-time kernels.

In general, standard TCP/IP (transmission control protocol-internet protocol), which is called TCP/IP, is using as the communication basis protocol between any collections of networks that is connected. In this paper, using this TCP/IP implementation of remote system and suitable program for long distance communication is proposed. This system can make system, which basic Ethernet and TCP/IP used system, to mini modeling, so all module that is using here can be used. Therefore, intention of this paper is to reduce expenses, to effective manage for plant and to increase of productivity as linking each plant of several factories to TCP/IP and Ethernet, and then many control plant and manager minimize the needed course.

TCP는 전송 비트 오류에 의한 패킷 손실 확률이 매우 낮은 유선망을 대상으로 설계된 프로토콜이므로, 이를 그대로 유 무선 통합 환경에 적용할 경우 TCP 송신단이 무선망의 제한된 대역폭, 높은 대기 시간, 높은 비트 에러율, 임시적인 연결 끊김 등의 특성에 의해 발생하는 패킷 손실도 네트워크 혼잡에 의한 것으로 가정하여 송신단 전송률을 낮추기 때문에 성능이 저하하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 Snoop을 기반으로 BS에 Threshold 와 Lower Bound을 이용한 새로운 개선된 프로토콜을 제안한다. 이 기법은 무선 패킷 손실을 빠르게 복구하기 위하여 무선링크의 상태에 따라서 기지국의 지역 재전송 타이머를 효과적으로 조정한다. 제안한 알고리즘을 다양한 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제안한 프로토콜이 Snoop프로토콜에 비하여 연속한 패킷 손실이 발생하는 무선 링크에서 패킷 손실을 효과적으로 복구하여 TCP전송률을 향상시키는 것을 확인하였다.

TCP(Transmission Control Protocol)는 인터넷 환경에서 널리 사용되고 있는 프로토콜의 하나이다. TCP는 흐름제어를 통해 데이터의 손실 및 재전송을 줄여 효율성을 높일 수 있으며, 이러한 흐름제어는 데이터 패킷 크기의 제한을 두는 윈도우 기법을 통해 이루어지고 있다. 흐름제어 방식에 의해 TCP는 다양한 버전으로 구분되어 있는데, 본 논문에서는 대표적인 Tahoe, Reno와 Reno의 개량형인 Newreno에 에러모델을 적용한 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 그 성능을 분석하였다.
