Ami Vashi, Akshay Pawar, Aruna Gawade . Cross Layer Techniques used for Improving TCP Performance in Wireless Networks: A Proposed Technique. International Journal of Computer Applications. 108, 11 ( December 2014), 9-12. DOI=10.5120/18953-0156
Abstract
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) running in the Transport Layer of layered architecture models like OSI, has been struggling with poor performance in wireless networks. Various probable solutions have been established by researchers worldwide. One branch of solutions uses the Cross Layer Design for improving TCP performance. Cross Layer Design violates the layered architecture norms of strictly discrete layers, and is used to improve TCP performance in wireless technology. In this paper, we talk about two cross layer techniques that have been established by researchers over past few years, employed to improve TCP performance. We compare, contrast and judge these techniques and propose our own technique for the same.
