Abstract :
A new method for simultaneous optimisation of both window and frame size link layer parameters for maximum IrLAP throughput is presented. The significance of the F-timer value on throughput performance is explored. A protocol improvement that utilises special supervisory frames (S-frames) to pass transmission control is proposed. This results in maximum throughput performance when both optimal window and frame size values are implemented
