Transmission control for future internet including error-prone wireless region

This paper introduces a transmission control scheme which is aimed at enhancing overalltransmission capability of internetworks including error-prone wireless regions.The proposed scheme can accurately adapt to wireless communication environmentsby integrating new approaches of bandwidth estimation, loss detection, and errorrecovery techniques while differentiating data losses due to physical bit error characteristicsof error-prone wireless regions from those due to network congestion. Fromthe simulations, it has been verified that the proposed scheme shows better throughputperformances than the existing major transmission control schemes such as NewReno, Vegas, and Westwood+, while achieving satisfied levels of fairness and friendlinesswith them.
