An Enhanced Multipath TCP: E-Adoption of Emerging Technology for Better Internet Bandwidth

Since 2020, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and lockdown policy have changed our life drastically. Due to this, companies, offices, schools, etc. are running in online mode. Therefore, the demand for internet bandwidth is very popular nowadays. Due to an increase in demand for internet bandwidth and the availability of multihomed devices, multipath TCP (MPTCP), and e-adoption of emerging technology enhanced bandwidth by utilizing the bandwidth of all available networks simultaneously. This paper analyzes the working principle of the MPTCP so that each internet device can easily use MPTCP to achieve high bandwidth. Load distribution and its performance mainly depend on the congestion control algorithm and the packet scheduler. MPTCP has various existing packet scheduling algorithms and congestion control algorithms. Here, the authors compare the performance of MPTCP with each congestion control algorithm and packet scheduler one by one and try to find out the best-performing MPTCP. This paper also shows that the MPTCP helps COVID-19 patients in various aspects.
