TCP Performance over UMTS-HSDPA Systems provides a comprehensive study of the effect of TCP both on achieved application bit rate performance and system capacity. The book describes how to reduce, with or without modification of TCP implementations, the effect of wireless networks on TCP. Emphasizing the effect of scheduling to improve TCP performance over wireless systems, the authors focus on the performance of TCP traffic over HSDPA. This text is ideal for advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers with basic knowledge in wireless networks that are keen on learning more about the UMTS access network evolution and interactions of the wireless link with TCP. |
