TLDR
A cross-layer protocol approach that modifies the behavior of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) using AMC techniques is considered and it is shown that the system achieves better throughput fairness when multiple flows share a bottle-necked access link.Abstract:
In this paper, we study wireless links that are enhanced using adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) techniques. In particular, we consider a cross-layer protocol approach that modifies the behavior of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) using AMC techniques. An application of the proposed system for an IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX) based Wireless Metropolitan Area Network (WMAN) is presented. The performance of the system has been studied using discrete event simulation models in ns2 and compared to TCP-Reno and TCP-Tahoe schemes. The results indicate that in our system, queueing delay and packet drops that result due to buffer overrun are minimized. We also show that our system achieves better throughput fairness when multiple flows share a bottle-necked access link.read more

Cross-layer-based adaptive TCP algorithm for cloud computing services in 4G LTE-A relaying communication
TL;DR: A cross-layer-based adaptive TCP algorithm is proposed to gather the LTE-A network states and then feeds the state information back to the TCP sender for accurately executing the network congestion control of TCP, and the number of timeouts and packet losses are significantly decreased by using the accurate TCP congestion window (cwnd).

TL;DR: A bottleneck link identification approach to identify bottleneck link is on the shared link or access link, to adjust the congestion window according to the bottleneck link location and to differentiate whether packet loss is due to network congestion or wireless random loss.

TCP/IP Illustrated Vol 1 The Protocols
TL;DR: TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 1 is a complete and detailed guide to the entire TCP/IP protocol suite - with an important difference from other books on the subject: rather than just describing what the RFCs say the protocol suite should do, this unique book uses a popular diagnostic tool so you may actually watch the protocols in action.

A rate-adaptive MAC protocol for multi-Hop wireless networks
TL;DR: This paper presents a rate adaptive MAC protocol called the Receiver-Based AutoRate (RBAR) protocol, based on the RTS/CTS mechanism, which can be incorporated into many medium access control protocols including the widely popular IEEE 802.11 protocol.

A cautionary perspective on cross-layer design
Vikas Kawadia,P. R. Kumar +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that it behooves to exercise caution while engaging in cross-layer design, because unbridled cross- layer design can lead to spaghetti design, which can stifle further innovation and be difficult to upkeep.
