Improving TCP Throughput Using Modified Packet Reordering Technique (MPRT) Over Manets

at the beginning of development of network technology TCP transport agent were designed assuming that communication is using wired network, but recently there is huge demand and use of wireless networks for communication. Those TCP variants which are successful in wired networks are neither able to detect exact causes of packet losses nor unnecessary transmission delays over wireless networks. The biggest challenge over MANET is design of robust and reliable TCP variant which should give best performance in different network scenarios. Till date more than dozens of TCP variants designed and modified by researcher and scientist communities even though the level of TCP performance have to be optimum in different scenarios, Such as congestion, link failure, signal loss and interferences. Over rod, grid and bulk network model also. As some of TCP-variant performs well in particular network scenarios but degrades in other scenarios. The objective of this research work, to modify packet reordering technique based TCP variant, implement and compare its performance with other variants. Validation of basic and main network model done using network simulator (NS2) and calculated throughput, delay and packet drop by processing trace files. The simulated result shows that, proposed technique performs outstanding almost in all network scenarios with minimum packet losses and minimum delay.
