Abstract :
We provide a simulation-based performance comparison of SCTP (stream control transmission protocol) vs TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) in MANET (mobile ad hoc network) environments. We conclude that the behavior of SCTP and TCP in MANETs is similar, but TCP outperforms SCTP in most cases because of extra overheads present in SCTP.
