Abstract

There are many types of Performance Enhancing Proxies (PEPs). Different types of PEPs are used in different environments to overcome different link characteristics which affect protocol performance [1]. The main examples concerns satellite and wireless networks, which represent the most challenging environments.

In the following, the main concepts representing the state of the art of the PEP will be introduced. An extension to the ETSI Broadband Satellite Multimedia (BSM) is proposed, in order to include PEP interfaces.
