Parameter Conditions for Global Stability of FAST TCP
In this letter, we study the global asymptotic stability of FAST TCP in the presence of network feedback delays. Based on a continuous-time dynamic model of FAST TCP and a static approximation of queuing delay at the link, we derive stability conditions for FAST TCP. The derived conditions are explicitly appeared as tuning parameter conditions of FAST TCP, and hence can be satisfied in a distributed way. The simulation results illustrate the validity of the conditions for the global asymptotic stability
Enhanced FAST TCP by Solving Rerouting Problem
Delay-based congestion control algorithms inability to recognize increased RTT related to rerouting from increased RTT related to congestion is their most serious problem which has serious effect on their throughput. FAST TCP is one of delay-based TCP variants that although outperforms other TCP variants in high bandwidth-delay product networks, but suffers from several problems that inhere in its procedure to estimate trip delay. The most serious of these problems is rerouting. When rerouting occurs and round-trip time (RTT) of the new path is longer than RTT of the old path, the throughput of FAST TCP decreases sharply. Because FAST misinterprets the increased RTT as result of the network congestion and consequently decreases its own window size. This paper solves this problem by considering the relationship between sending rate and observed RTT. The simulation results show the effectiveness of proposed solution to solve rerouting problem while simultaneously preserves FAST TCP prominent primitive features
