On link-layer reliability and stability for wireless communication
2008
Proceedings of the 14th ACM international conference on Mobile computing and networking - MobiCom '08
A primary focus of popular wireless link-layer protocols is to achieve some level of reliability using ARQ or Hybrid ARQ mechanisms. However, these and other leading linklayer protocols largely ignore the stability aspect of wireless communication, and rely on higher layers to provide stable traffic flow control. This design strategy has led to a great deal of inefficiency in throughput and to other major issues (such as the well-known TCP over-wireless performance degradation phenomenon and
