Abstract
TCP Veno was proposed to eliminate TCP performance suffering from wireless links. Real network measurements and live Internet results have validated TCP Veno's significant throughput improvement in wireless networks and its harmonious co-existence with TCP Reno connections in wired networks. In this paper, we develop a simple analytic approach to characterize TCP Veno behavior in both wire and wireless situations. Being different from the equation of TCP Reno, a more general close formula is derived, taking into account of the refined multiplicative decrease algorithm in Veno, to model the throughput for a bulk transfer of TCP Veno flow. Our simulation and experimental results demonstrate that such an equation is able to accurately predict TCP Veno throughput over different network scenarios, ranging from very low lossy links to very heavy lossy links.
