TCP Cracow, Bandwidth Estimation, Self-similarity


Accurate bandwidth estimation can provide better performance of transport protocols. While modern TCP implementation behavior is often semi-random when approaching congestion, bandwidth estimation-based transport protocol like TCP Cracow can better adjust its parameters to the network state. In this paper we compare performance of TCP Cracow and common TCP Reno versions in coexistence simulation scenarios. The self similarity of both protocols was considered in terms of Hurst parameter increase.
