TCP over WiMAX: A Measurement Study
2008
2008 IEEE International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Computers and Telecommunication Systems
We present active measurement results from a commercial IEEE 802.16/WiMAX-based network, with primary focus on TCP performance. We compare four TCP variants, namely New Reno, Cubic, Vegas and Veno, using throughput, round-trip time (RTT), and retransmission rate metrics. While all TCP variants achieve similar throughput, they do so in different ways, with different impacts on the network performance. We identify adverse effects of TCP window auto-tuning in this environment and demonstrate that
