Abstract: On wireless links, the rate of corruption losses can be significant, leading to poor TCP performance. The performance gets worse when these losses are mistaken for congestion losses, unduly triggering the TCP congestion control algorithms. To avoid this, techniques to distinguish between corruption and congestion losses without any explicit information from the network (routers or switches) are of interest. In the past, several proposals require TCP sender to reduce its window size when... (Update)
