Enhancement Of Transmission Control Protocol Performance Over Low Earth Orbit Satellite Links

Recent growth of the Internet has led to the development of Internet services everywhere and over every possible communications medium. Here, Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellite has been addressed as a medium for supporting services based on the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Basically, TCP wa...
