Improving fairness of TCP Vegas

TCP Vegas exhibits fairness problems even for flows with the same round‐trip time (RTT). We propose an enhanced Vegas with three revisions, replacing BaseRTT with RTT, detecting how fast acknowledgements return and the acceleration of the return speed. The impacts of each of the three proposed revis...

Summary:TCP Vegas exhibits fairness problems even for flows with the same round‐trip time (RTT). We propose an enhanced Vegas with three revisions, replacing BaseRTT with RTT, detecting how fast acknowledgements return and the acceleration of the return speed. The impacts of each of the three proposed revisions are not ignorable. The proposed novel Vegas with the three revisions, called EVA, achieves better fairness under various network conditions. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
