We propose and study a novel end-to-end congestion control mechanism called TCP-LD (Loss Detection) that is simple and effective for dealing with random packet loss. We also give its steady state throughput model. Both the ns2 and numerical simulation results show that our scheme can achieve significant throughput improvements without adversely affecting other concurrent TCP connections, including other concurrent Reno connections both in wired and wireless environment.展开更多
