Innovation Summary:
This invention introduces a modified version of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) designed to tolerate packet loss in high-bandwidth, high-latency networks. It adjusts congestion control mechanisms to maintain throughput despite losses, ensuring reliable data delivery without sacrificing speed. The protocol is particularly effective in wireless and satellite communication environments, where traditional TCP performance typically degrades.
Challenges / Opportunities:
Traditional TCP suffers from significant performance degradation in networks with high latency and packet loss, such as satellite or mobile networks. This invention addresses the need for robust data transmission in such challenging environments. It enables more efficient use of bandwidth in modern communication systems and opens opportunities for deployment in next-generation internet infrastructure and mobile networks.
Key Benefits / Advantages:
✔ Maintains high throughput under packet loss
✔ Enhances performance in wireless and satellite networks
✔ Backward compatible with existing systems
✔ Improves user experience in high-latency environments
Applications:
• Wireless communications
• Satellite internet
• Cloud computing
• High-speed data transfer
