Performance evaluation of the DCCP protocol for high-speed networks
Abstract
The Internet transport layer protocols, TCP and UDP, do not provide efficient transport for multimedia streams. UDP is used for these application, due to its low overhead. However it does not implement any kind of congestion control mechanism. A new transport layer protocol, called DCCP, was proposed to meet the demand of multimedia applications, aiming at replacing the UDP protocol. An evaluation of the performace of DCCP, operating in highspeed networks is necessary for assessing the adequacy of its properties such as scalability, fairness, convergence and compatibility with TCP flows in such type of network.References
