Evaluation of SCTP multistreaming over wireless/satellite links

چکیده
In this paper, we study the impact of multistreaming on the performance of SCTP over satellite networks. We first show that multistreaming results in higher goodput than single streams when the receiver buffer is constrained as in the case of wireless handheld devices. We then demonstrate that the multistreaming feature of SCTP results in reduced buffer requirements at the receiver in the presence of losses in the satellite network. The above advantages makes SCTP an attractive transport protocol for wireless handheld devices.

Evaluation of SCTP Multistreaming over Satellite Links
The Stream Control Transmission Protocol has been developed as a reliable transport protocol to carry PSTN signaling messages over an IP network. Multistreaming is one of its powerful features to overcome some of the bottlenecks of single streamed protocols such as TCP. In this paper, we study the impact of multistreaming on the performance of SCTP over error prone satellite networks. We show t...
متن کاملImproving Performance of SCTP over Broadband High Latency Networks
Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is newly emerged protocol, which combined good qualities of TCP and UDP. It is a reliable message oriented protocol providing Multistreaming and Multihoming as well. The congestion control scheme of SCTP is more or less similar to that of TCP with the exception of the Fast Recovery algorithm. The performance of SCTP over the Internet and satellite lin...
متن کاملImproving the Performance of SCTP Transport Protocol over Wireless Networks
Stream Control Transmission Protocol(SCTP) is a reliable transport protocol combining the advantages of TCP and UDP. SCTP has many desirable features including multihoming, multistreaming, and partial data reliability. These features have made SCTP perform much more effectively in multimedia networking applications. They have also worked better in wireless environment which traditional transpor...
متن کاملImproving Multiple File Transfers Using SCTP Multistreaming
We identify overheads associated with FTP, attributed to separate TCP connections for data and control, non-persistence of the data connections, and the sequential nature of command exchanges. We argue that solutions to avoid these overheads using TCP place an undue burden on the application. Instead we propose modifying FTP to use SCTP and its multistreaming service. FTP over SCTP avoids the i...
متن کاملSCTP-multihoming for intra and inter-RAT data handover management
SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) provides interesting features, as multihoming and multistreaming, to enhance information transport performances over air interfaces. Additional extensions have been proposed to adapt SCTP to wireless context (mSCTP: mobile SCTP). However, published approaches do not take into account channel state information during handover processes. The present wor...
