Scalable TCP: Better Throughput in TCP Congestion Control Algorithms on MANETs

“…Congestion Control and Congestion Avoidance are two known solutions which address the above problem. In congestion control [2], system controls the network parameters after realizing congestion (reactive); whereas, in congestion avoidance, system controls the network parameters before congestion (proactive). After the invention of TCP, there is numerous congestion control algorithms discovered for different purposes.…”

Performance of STT-Vegas in heterogeneous wired and wireless networks

“…However, some weaknesses have been observed [1,8,9]. TCP uses a reactive rather than proactive congestion control protocol.…”

An Advance Approach to Evaluate the Performance of the TCP Networks

“…There are some problems affecting the network performance like congestion phenomenon in TCP networks [1] . Researchers tried to design new strategies in effort of increasing the network performance and quality.…”

“…RED is an algorithm follows the AQM approach of congestion handling [3] . Many RED based algorithms have been proposed since the RED algorithm was presented in 1993 [1] . Some of these algorithms are: Adaptive RED (ARED), Blue RED and Stabilized RED (SRED).…”

“…Some of these algorithms are: Adaptive RED (ARED), Blue RED and Stabilized RED (SRED). The performance of these various REDs has been evaluated [1,2] . Researchers tried to evaluate the network performance by many ways.…”
