Decoupling Control From Data for TCP Congestion Control
Contributions
Propose an approach to apply TCP's congestion control alone to a packet
stream (can be an aggregate flow) without imposing TCP's error control onto
it.
This approach 1. creates useful TCP trunking service, 2. improves TCP
performance in wireless network by 350%, and 3. makes a UDP packet stream 100%
TCP-friendly.
