Abstract :
HTTP is absolute essential part of the Internet. However, in the large delayed network such as mobile data network, the performance of HTTP is influenced by “TCP acknowledgement delay”. In this paper, HTTP over WebSocket proxy system is proposed to defeat the delay. In proposal, HTTP is used to achieve end-to-end communication. Each HTTP request and response is encapsulated into WebSocket packet at the client and server. In this paper, proposed system is implemented on Android smartphone and evaluated delay difference characteristics.
