Abstract
This paper analyzes the maximum throughput across a full duplex link, under three link level protocols. The three protocols all assume cumulative acknowledgements, but the sender's retransmission policy and the destination's policy on retaining correctly received packets which arrive before an expected retransmission do differ. The results quantify the throughput advantages in retaining all correctly received packets, for the two different retransmission policies. A retention policy on the part of the destination is most advantageous when the link is quite error-prone.

Experimental study of link and transport protocols in interference-prone wireless LAN environments
COMSNETS'09: Proceedings of the First international conference on COMmunication Systems And NETworksAs wireless networks are deployed widely and user expectations grow, it is important to study the trade-offs among goodput, latency and loss rates that exist in link and transport protocols. Under low residual loss rates, retransmissions can be ...
Error-resilient packet reordering for compressed video transmission over error-prone networks
ICUIMC '13: Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Ubiquitous Information Management and CommunicationIn wireless video transmission, the bursty packet losses of the channel will severely impair the reconstructed video quality. This paper presents an error-resilient packet reordering scheme to improve the error robustness of the transmitted video. ...
