Performance Analysis of TFRC and UDP over Mobile-IP Network with Computing Flows

Abstract

In wireless networking, mobility is one of the key features. Mobility allows users to move around with their device within the given area that is covered by wireless network. This research aimed to conduct a performance analysis of TFRC and UDP over mobile-IP network with competing flows that enables to investigate three major performance metrics such as jitter, throughput, packet loss and packet delay. Two different transport layer protocols will be used in this analysis. Since mobility has been the core issue of computing of 21st century, hence, this research aims to contribute in this phenomena by measuring the performance analysis in mobile IP network, where mobile devices (nodes) are moved from access points to access points (AP) in order to exemplify the suitability of TFRC and UDP in wireless networking, moreover to collect data about crucial performance metrics features. The experiment was conducted by Network Simulation (NS-2).
