Cross-Layer Error Recovery Optimization in WiFi Networks
[chapter]
2007
Signals and Communication Technology
This paper presents a novel approach for cross-layer error control optimization in WiFi networks. The focus is on the reduction of the overhead deriving from the duplicate ARQ strategies employed at the link and transport layers. The proposed solution, called ARQ proxy, substitutes the transmission of a transport layer acknowledgement with a short request sent at the link layer. Specifically, TCP ACKs are generated based on in-transit traffic analysis and stored at the Access Point. Such TCP
