Abstract

When TCP Reno and TCP Vegas connections share a link, TCP Reno generally steals more bandwidth and dominates TCP Vegas because of its aggressive nature. This is the major reason why TCP Vegas has not gained much popularity and deployment in the Internet despite its excellent standalone performance. This work systematically examines compatibility between Reno and Vegas in wired as well as in wireless networks. Popular Active Queue Management (AQM) technique named as Random Early Detection (RED) to minimize the incompatibility between Reno and Vegas in wired network. For wireless network two ad hoc routing protocols such as Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Destination-Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV) are considered. Simulation results show that the incompatibility between Reno and Vegas in wired network is minimized using popular RED techniques. But in wireless ad hoc network environment Reno's aggressive behavior gets deteriorated while sharing with Vegas. Moreover, Reno and Vegas are more compatible in wireless network than wired network when both coexist in same time.
