Abstract :
In this paper, WiMP-SCTP, which allows a host to improve its transmission goodput in wireless networks using multi-path transmission of stream control transmission protocol, is proposed. Along with a transmission mode switching scheme, two transmission modes of WiMP-SCTP, i.e., the "Data-duplicating Mode" and the "Data-striping Mode", are designed to enhance transmission goodputs for different wireless link status. The issue of path selection scenarios are investigated and the possible solution for the path selection is also discussed in this paper.
