| Abstract | High data rate wireless technologies are now becoming a reality, and have spurred the development of new applications that were previously hindered by the lack of capacity. In particular, it is now possible to stream high definition movies from a laptop to a sound system and flat screen television seamlessly. One of the key enablers of such applications is the IEEE 802.15.3 medium access control (MAC) protocol, which is designed to support bandwidth intensive applications in wireless personal area networks (WPANs). A key observation is that a significant number of multi-media applications rely on the transmission control protocol (TCP). Unfortunately, little works have conducted a thorough performance study of TCP over the IEEE 802.15.3 MAC. Moreover, the IEEE 802.15.3 specification does not specify any strategies for allocating time slots. This paper therefore contributes to the current state-of-the-art in the following manners. From our extensive analytical and simulation studies, we reveal the impacts of different channel time allocation methods and acknowledgment policies on the performance of TCP, with particular attention on round trip time, congestion window growth, and packet recovery. We then present the following guidance to application developers: (1) channel time allocations (CTAs) should be distributed evenly over the superframe and have durations determined by TCP’s maximum congestion window, (2) CTA positioning has no impact on TCP’s performance, and (3) the specified delayed acknowledgment policy needs to be augmented with an adaptive algorithm that adjusts its burst size dynamically to varying bit error rate (BER). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
