TCP-based data flows generate packets and ACKs in two directions, be it in the wireline or wireless networks. In the latter case, packets are typically found in the downlink where...
—In 1948 Shannon developed fundamental limits on the efficiency of communication over noisy channels. The coding theorem asserts that there are block codes with code rates arbit...
Abstract— Fueled by the competing DSL and Cable technologies, residential broadband access has seen a significant spread in availability to the point that many users have a choi...
This paper studies the transmission of images encoded using an embedded source encoder over a wireless network allowing user cooperation. A dynamic programming algorithm is applie...
—In this paper, we propose a novel transport protocol that effectively utilizes available bandwidth and diversity gains provided by heterogeneous, highly lossy paths. Our Multi-P...
