An intelligent cell checking policy for promoting data transfer performance in wireless ATM networks

Abstract

In this paper, the efficiency of transferring non-real-time data over wireless ATM (WATM) networks is studied. Such services are sensitive to bit error as well as cell loss. The loss of a single cell due to congestion or a link error will result in the retransmission of the entire data frame by the end user. In this paper, we propose an intelligent cell checking policy (ICCP) with the existent congestion control algorithm to enhance the throughput of wireless ATM networks.
