| Abstract | This paper proposes a new extension for the SCTP pro tocol which aims at improving the transport performance in wire less environments. This extension is named QoS_Measurement_chunk. It relies a) on a cross-layer mechanism taking place between SCTP and the link layer and b) on a new SCTP control chunk. Network can be informed of variations of link layer transmission conditions via control QoS_Measurement_chunks and SCTP congestion control para meters are modified to take into account new radio conditions. The present study illustrates the use of this extension in a EGPRS context. It compares its performances with standard SCTP when downlink transmission is considered in handoff situation. |
