Abstract :
We evaluate various TCP transport protocols on paths over a satellite link. More specifically, we evaluate Reno, Cubic, Compound TCP, Hybla, and a newly proposed Capacity and congestion probing TCP on file transfer applications. Our results show that a single transport protocol delivering best performance on various network scenarios does not yet exist.
