Abstract

Exploitation of mobile peer networking in providing data and multimedia services has to-date been limited for a number of reasons, these include difficulties in addressing different ubiquitous radio access networks, cost per bandwidth, as well as increased TCP congestion due to reduced radio resources. A new mobile peer networking algorithm involving adaptive window techniques based on Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) control is proposed. Results show that the proposed technique presents a remarkable network performance improvement over standard algorithms.
