Abstract

In this paper the simulation-based analysis of the reason of TCP throughput and loss over multihops wireless networks is given. An end-to-end combination scheme including both limiting of sending window size and delayed ACK mechanism to improve TCP throughput over multihops wireless networks is evaluated. The simulation results show the combination scheme has better goodput and loss performance than traditional TCP.
