Abstract :
The standard SCTP, RFC 2960, assumes that all packet losses are congestion losses. Thus, it does not perform well in wireless ad hoc networks where congestion losses and wireless losses coexist. This paper designs an alternative of SCTP, which is wireless-aware (W-A). The W-A SCTP is the first that simultaneously considers i) the nature of wireless losses (random or bursty losses), ii) the energy efficiency of battery powered ad hoc nodes, and iii) the goodput performance
