| Description | This chapter describes Beatha, a transport protocol for rapidly deployable emergency communications. Beatha is designed to overcome the challenges that transport protocols encounter in a rapidly deployable wireless environment. The primary objective of this protocol is to provide reliable end-to-end transport layer support for applications used in disaster recovery and rescue operations over characteristics-based anonymous communication. The chapter also describes components of Beatha: connection management, segment management, acknowledgment, retransmission timer management and flow control. The chapter then explains a rate-based adaptive flow-control mechanism along with a negative acknowledgment (NAK)-based retransmission scheme that enhances end-to-end throughput in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) over long multihop paths. The chapter explores a non-identifier-oriented architecture, an alternative to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/Internet Protocol (IP) architecture, for rapidly deployable emergency communication. There are, however, some limitations in Beatha. Its flow control and acknowledgment mechanisms are designed to assume that clocks are synchronized. Book Name: Opportunistic Networking |
