    How does Fast-retransmission TCP handle packet losses and improve performance in the Mobile Transport Layer?

    <p>Fast-retransmission TCP reduces the time a sender waits before retransmitting a lost packet by lowering the threshold for duplicate acknowledgments needed to trigger a retransmission.</p> Signup and view all the answers

    Study Notes

    Mobile Network Layer

    • Mobile IP aims to provide location-independent routing of IP packets to mobile devices
    • Assumptions of Mobile IP: mobile nodes change their point of attachment to the internet, mobile nodes use IP as the network layer protocol
    • Requirements of Mobile IP: mobility, transparency to applications, and scalability
    • Entities in Mobile IP: mobile nodes, home agents, foreign agents, and correspondent nodes
    • Terminology in Mobile IP: home address, care-of address, binding update
    • IP packet delivery in Mobile IP: triangular routing, tunnelling, and encapsulation
    • Agent Advertisement and Discovery in Mobile IP: allows mobile nodes to discover available agents
    • Registration in Mobile IP: mobile nodes register with a home agent and a foreign agent
    • Tunneling in Mobile IP: encapsulation of IP packets for routing
    • Encapsulation in Mobile IP: adding headers to IP packets for routing
    • Optimization in Mobile IP: reducing overhead of Mobile IP
    • Reserve Tunneling in Mobile IP: tunneling from correspondent node to mobile node
    • Security in Mobile IP: protecting against unauthorized access and use
    • IPv6 and Mobile IP: using IPv6 features for Mobile IP
    • DHCP in Mobile IP: dynamic allocation of IP addresses

    Mobile Adhoc Networks

    • Routing in MANETs: finding routes between mobile nodes
    • Destination Sequence Distance Vector (DSDV) algorithm: table-driven algorithm for MANETs
    • Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) algorithm: on-demand algorithm for MANETs
    • Hierarchical algorithms for MANETs: clustering, tree-based, and mesh-based algorithms
    • Performance Metrics for MANETs: throughput, delay, packet loss, and jitter

    Mobile Transport Layer

    • Traditional TCP: does not adapt well to wireless networks
    • Indirect TCP: TCP connection between mobile node and fixed host
    • Snooping TCP: sniffing and caching TCP segments to improve performance
    • Mobile TCP: TCP optimized for mobile networks
    • Fast-retransmission TCP: quick retransmission of lost packets
    • Transaction-oriented TCP: optimize for short transactions
