Wireless Multi-path TCP Westwood+ Modification to Achieve Fairness in HSDPA
EMS 2010 IEEE conference
Multi-path is a technique to increase the reliability of the internet connection in IP network. The implementation of this technique can be described as a host with two TCP paths work together, when one of them fails the other will back up the connection. Since TCP does not support multi-homing, the right term for this technique is multi-path. The fairness problem arises when multi-path host uses the same bottleneck link with another single-path host. This problem can be solved by scaling down each sub-
