Abstract(in English) TCP is a reliable transport protocol tuned to perform well in traditional wired networks where most packet losses are due to congestion. However, networks with wireless and other lossy links suffer from significant packet loss more due to unreliable wireless links than due to congestion. Recently, several schemes have been proposed to improve the performance of TCP over wireless networks. In this paper, we use ECN (Explicit Congestion Notification) as a means of conveying congestion information back to the end-systems, and describe an ECN-based end-to-end congestion-control framework over wireless networks. Especially, we investigate the effect of SINR signal reflecting the strength information of wireless signal on the performance of the ECN-based wireless TCP, and evaluate the performance of our protocol in the both congested and wireless cases. Simulations of our protocol show that it significantly improves TCP throughput over a reasonable range of SINR in a wireless environment.
