Abstract:This paper studies the performance of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) over Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) when Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) technology is used in the local loop. TCP can experience performance degradation in this network architecture because of protocol conversion overhead and data losses due to transmission errors. In this papel; a simulation model is developed to simulate ADSL network components and noisy local loops. The simulation experiments are designed to study the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
