Optimal settings of maximum transfer unit (MTU) for efficient wireless video communications

Abstract: Following its success over wired networks, the deployment of the Internet Protocol (IP) over wireless networks is an increasingly popular topic. Protocol optimisations implemented at this level only consider the traditional Internet applications. Path maximum transfer unit (MTU) discovery algorithms are designed to avoid packet fragmentation along the transmission path and hence improve protocol efficiency. However, the design criteria do not take into account the potentially significant influences on the perf… Show more

“…The IP fragmentation causes slow network performance due to longer Round Trip Time (RTT) and sometime leads to a total communication failure [24] if the X.509v3 certificate size is too big to be fragmented in to many packets with separate headers, payloads and overheads respectively. To avoid IP fragmentation along the packet transmission path, the PMTUD mechanisms are designed to improve the protocol efficiency [25]. The PMTUD mechanism allows the packets to be fragmented at the source side itself and determines the relevant MTU between the two IP hosts [26], however, this mechanism largely depends on the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packets which has issues with the path MTU black holes [27], [28], [29].…”

“…For example, a larger packet is generally more vulnerable to error in error-prone wireless access networks. Some studies investigated the optimal packet size for a wireless network considering both protocol overhead and error [14]. Here, we want to stress that the main problem of the current standard that we want to address in this paper is not size itself but rather inflexibility in size.…”
