Characterizing End-to-End Delay Performance of Randomized TCP Using an Analytical Model

Abstract

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is the main transport protocol used in high speed network. In the OSI Model, TCP exists in the Transport Layer and it serves as a connection-oriented protocol which performs handshaking to create a connection. In addition, TCP provides end-to-end reliability. There are different standard variants of TCP (e.g. TCP Reno, TCP NewReno etc.)which implement mechanisms to dynamically control the size of congestion window but they do not have any control on the sending time of successive packets. TCP pacing introduces the concept of controlling the packet sending time at TCP sources to reduce packet loss in a bursty traffic network. Randomized TCP is a new TCP pacing scheme which has shown better performance (considering throughput, fairness) over other TCP variants in bursty networks. The end-to-end delay of Randomized TCP is a very important performance measure which has not yet been addressed. In the current high speed networks, it is increasingly important to have mechanisms that keep end-to-end to delay within an acceptable range. In this paper, we present the performance evaluation of end-to-end delay of Randomized TCP. To this end, we have used an analytical and a simulation model to characterize the end-to-end delay performance of Randomized TCP.
