“…Once a path is selected, both data and ACK will be transmitted over that path. Kashihara et al [5] and Fracchia et al [6] extend the default SCTP multi-homing sup-port, so that switching can be performed dynamically using decision criteria such as minimum RTT (Round Trip Time) and estimated available bandwidth. A QoS-driven extension of SCTP proposed by Cao et al [7] is used to improve the vertical handover mechanisms in heterogeneous networks by analysing the service stability and capacity of each path.…”

Connected vehicles are promoted with the use of different communication technologies for diverse applications and services. There is an ongoing debate in the research and industry communities whether short range communications based on IEEE 802.11p or cellular based on 3GPP LTE should be used for vehicular communications. We propose a mechanism to utilise both short range and cellular communications simultaneously in a cost efficient way while providing the required quality of service to the users. A host connected to multiple networks is referred to as a multi-homed node and SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) is an IETF standard which supports multi-homing. We propose an extension to SCTP that takes into account not only path quality but also the cost of using each network. It is shown that the combination of QoS and cost information increases economic benefits for provider and end-users, while providing increased packet throughput.Keywords: SCTP, cost efficiency, hybrid network architecture, heterogeneous vehicular networks, LTE, DSRCCitation: K.

“…retransmit lost packets to increase probability of successful reception and transmission of new packets when primary is declared inactive, in which case the secondary is turned primary. In [4], the selection of primary interface is based on two factors; round trip time (RTT) and estimated bottleneck bandwidth. RTT reflects the degree of congestion and the packet loss rate on a path.…”

“…However, their results are based on simulation evaluation, without providing a robust analytical model. In this paper, an analytical model for a modified SCTP model is presented, which selects the primary network interface based minimum round trip time (RTT) such as the proposals in [4], [5]. The proposed work analyses SCTP throughput using a discrete Markov chain to describe congestion window evolution and queueing theory to estimate path's round trip time.…”

Connected vehicles are promoted with the use of different communication technologies for diverse applications. A host with multiple network devices is referred to as a multihomed node. Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is an IETF standard which supports multi-homing. However, original SCTP multi-homing functionality is only used when the primary address becomes unavailable. This paper presents an analytical model for a modified SCTP with multi-homed hosts, which selects the primary network address using a utility function based on minimum round trip time.

“…In [7], an interesting approach to best-path selection and transfer is applied in wireless networks, where packet-pair bandwidth estimation and roundtrip-time (RTT) measurements are used. Then in [8] a combination of packet-pair and ack-based bandwidth estimation technique is used for best path selection and transfer in wireless networks.…”

Distributed rate allocation for flows in best path transfer using SCTP multihoming

There are multiple paths between pairs of multihomed source and destination hosts. However, some Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) versions always try to use the best available path and funnel all traffic onto it, leaving the remaining ones for redundancy.We investigate fair rate allocation for flows on paths in best path transfer (BPT) using SCTP multihoming. Firstly, path capacity is defined and the common paths shared by several different sources are considered. Based on the idea of network utility maximization (NUM), the rate allocation model for BPT is presented, in which path reputation is used as a novel metric for the best path selection. In order to obtain the optimum of our model, two distributed algorithms are presented, and different fairness concepts can be achieved among competing sources if different utility functions are chosen accordingly. Simulation results confirm that the proposed algorithms can achieve the global optimums within reasonable convergence times.
