Abstract :
An analytical framework for studying the efficiency and throughput of WAP 2.0 Wireless Profiled TCP (WP-TCP) flows in an heterogeneous wireless environment is proposed. Explicit mathematical expressions that describe the WP-TCP long-run average efficiency and throughput are derived. Simulations are performed to validate the accuracy of the analytical results. It is shown that increasing the maximum window size improves the efficiency and throughput in high transmission error environment, but degrades the efficiency in low transmission error environment.
