Abstract :
In a TCP/IP connection over a Bluetooth wireless link, the temporal correlation of errors improves performance slightly at low error rates. At a certain cutoff point, performance decreases dramatically due to TCP/IP timeouts, retransmits, and window shrinking. When two channels are modelled by both spatial and temporal correlation, the effect of "correlation sharing" can readily be seen.
