Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) TCP is generally used for data transmission on a geo-synchronous satellite link. It is known that the throughput increase corresponding to the increase of transmission speed can not be expected on a geo-synchronous satellite link since TCP was originally designed as a protocol for terrestrial cable networks. We established a computer simulation, system and an experimental system using a Ka-band satellite to investigate the TCP performance on a high speed satellite communication link. This paper describes the throughput performances obtained by both systems using Window Scaling Option which is expected to improve the conventional TCP performances and shows the relationship between bit error rate and throughput.
