Standard congestion control cannot detect link failure losses which occur due to mobility and power scarcity in multi-hop Ad-Hoc network (MANET). Moreover, successive executions of Back-off algorithm deficiently grow Retransmission Timeout (RTO) exponentially for new route. The importance of detecting and responding link failure losses is to preven...

... in case of Timeout, when probability of congestion rejected, link breakage becomes more likely. At the end of flowchart, since no acknowledgment received in case of Timeout, first part of queue usage equation is zero (shown in figure 2) and only small fraction of recent queue usage considered for current queue usage. Obviously, successive timeout decrease any large ratio to become below than threshold and eventually set link failure flag. ...

Multi-path routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) minimizes latency and ensures on-demand backup routing to prevail over route errors. Unplanned network load degrades individual node performance, preventing instant path switch-over. This increases overloading of the nodes and henceforth resulting in drops. We propose a two-phase optimization algorithm in a hybrid manner assimilating Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and Genetic Approach (GA) to improve load handling capacity of the nodes with improved packet delivery at the destination. Both node and path selection are favored by conditional optimization in both the phases; concentrating in minimum switch-over and higher delivery rate. Precise path and neighbor selection by improved load handling capability minimizes packet drop and control overhead.

Wireless sensor network comprises several small nodes distributed randomly in an area under observation. These nodes sense the assigned physical phenomenon occurring around it and reports back to the base station. WSN is increasingly applied in defense, industrial, health care applications etc. Some applications envisage movement of the nodes. This results in frequent alteration of network topology leading to dynamic network partitioning. Hence, the routing of data from source to sink faces more routing disruptions. Maintaining application specific quality of service (QoS) in terms of Packet delivery ratio in such Mobile wireless sensor network (MWSN) environment is a daunting task. This cannot be achieved by focusing on a solution in only a single layer of sensor network protocol stack. Instead, by incorporating different techniques in each layered OSI protocol stack, a single coherent framework is proposed in this paper. This paper proposes prediction based coding in application layer, opportunistic routing in network layer, Laplacian scaling based on round trip time measurement in session layer. The proposed cross layer solution ensures application specific QoS guaranteed fault tolerance in MWSN.

Transmission control protocol provides congestion control mechanisms. These mechanisms work well for mobile adhoc network and wireless networks. TCP provides different mechanisms for both networks. TCP suffers from the packet loss problem in both networks. TCP controls congestion as per type of loss. The mobile adhoc network faces two types of packet loss, 1) loss due to congestion 2) loss due to link failure. TCP can not identify these loss types and it assumes loss as congestion loss. It has existing variants which perform congestion control. One of TCP variant TCP westwood works for congestion control with the help of bandwidth estimation. It works well but has not taken care the value of last Round trip time and estimated round trip time which are the important parameters to analyze network status. The proposed westwood has taken care of these two parameters and controls congestion window based on them. The work proposed in this paper focuses utilization of round trip time for throughput improvement. The proposed algorithm is tested on NS 2.35 and compared with existing variants like TCP Reno, TCP Vegas and TCP westwood and result reveals certain improvements.

In wireless network packet loss occurs due to congestion, Wireless channel error and link failure.Here Transmission control protocol cannot respond the packet loss properly. It degrades its performance by presuming the loss due to congestion. So it has become important to find the reasons behind these losses for improvement in TCP's performance. Many researchers have worked in this area and evaluated algorithms which differentiate the cause of packet losses. This paper surveys about various techniques mitigate Packet Loss Differentiation as well as focuses on certain open areas for future research. Most of the surveyed reveals that researchers have worked for the congestion loss only, handful schemes cannot identify the link failure loss. The TCP's performance can be improved with proper loss recovery technique, suitable congestion avoidance scheme and there can be mechanism to switch between suitable Loss Recovery Algorithm (LRA) or congestion avoidance scheme automatically as per identified loss.

The mobile ad-hoc network is the decentralized type of network in which mobile nodes can move from one location to another. Due to random mobility of the mobile nodes route establishment, route maintenance is the major issues of mobile ad-hoc networks. This research paper, focus on the route establishment and route maintenance properties of mobile ad-hoc network. The DCFR protocol is the route establishment and route maintenance protocol in which broker route will be recovered on the basis of node connectivity. The node, which has maximum connectivity, is selected as the best node for route recovery in DCFR Protocol. In this research work, the DCFR protocol is further improved by adding buffer size parameter for route recovery which also maintains quality of service in the network. The proposed DCFR protocol simulation results perform well as compared to existing DCFR protocol in terms of certain parameters

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) has provided new challenges, which affect the end-to-end transmission of data. In MANET, data packets can get lost due to congestion, route failure, or wireless channel error. Transmission control protocol (TCP) performs poorly in such networks. This is because TCP’s congestion control mechanism cannot distinguish between congestion and non-congestion related packet losses. TCP was previously developed for wired networks with the assumption that packet loss is an indication of congestion. However, in MANET TCP performs congestion control action for several types of losses that are not related to congestion. Consequently, when a packet loss is detected either by timeout or three duplicate acknowledgments, TCP slows down the sending rate by adjusting its congestion window size (cwnd) and unnecessarily retransmit a packet, which leads to lower throughput. In this paper, we proposed a novel approach for TCP to distinguish packet losses due to congestion or route failure due to mobility of nodes. The proposed protocol is called TCP Packet Loss Detection and Response (TCP-PLDR). We developed analytical model of throughput of TCP with selective acknowledgment (TCP-SACK) and TCP-PLDR protocols in the presence of congestion and route failure losses. Simulation was conducted using network simulator (ns-2) and results showed that TCP-PLDR improves TCP-SACK’s performance in MANET. As an example, simulation experiment for route failure and congestion loss scenario shows that TCP-PLDR improves the throughput of TCP-SACK on average by 39%.
