Performance analysis of Cubic and Yeah TCP implementation using BATMAND over MANET

In recent years, several TCP congestion control algorithms have been proposed to increase the ability of TCP in high-speed and long distance networks. One of TCP implementations, which in MANET, opened new challenges for those algorithms to demonstrate the stability, scalability, and efficiency of the mechanism. This paper compared two TCP congestion control algorithms, namely Cubic TCP and Yeah TCP by using BATMAND in several static and mobile node scenarios. In addition, we also investigated the impact of slow start optional modifications to the performance of both TCP. Based on the gained insight, we assume that Yeah TCP has better performance due to its capability to anticipate loss events on MANET, and slow start optional modification at some values has significant effect to TCP performance.
