An Experimental Testbed for Evaluating End-to-End TCP Performance Over Wired-to-Wireless Paths

摘要: Research into the performance issues of TCP over wireless networks has been focus much attention in recent years. Specifically, many homes and offices are now fully equipped with WLAN technologies enabling users devices to connect Internet that predominantly run for reliable service delivery. It is therefore a common scenario today segments originating from server traverse link last-hop portion connection on its way client. We present an experimental testbed allows researchers experiment real implementations real-world IEEE 802.11 WLAN, capturing true end-to-end behaviour connections emulated Internet. Also, results obtained allowed us establish distribution frame losses which may be insightful research area packet-loss control techniques such as erasure coding. The our initial step forward making more robust future environments.
