An IPsec Compatible Implementation of DBRA and IP-ABRSherwood, Nicholas 05 May 2005 (has links)
Satellites are some of the most difficult links to exploit in a Quality of Service (QoS) sensitive network, largely due to their high latency, variable-bandwidth and low-bandwidth nature. Central management of shared links has been shown to provide efficiency gains and enhanced QoS by effectively allocating resources according to reservations and dynamic resource availability. In a modern network, segregated by secure gateways and tunnels such as provided by IPsec, central management appears impossible to implement due to the barriers created between a global Dynamic Bandwidth Resource Allocation (DBRA) system and the mediators controlling the individual flows. This thesis explores and evaluates various through-IPsec communications techniques aimed at providing a satellite-to-network control channel, while maintaining data security for all communications involved.

A Performance Analysis of TCP and STP Implementations and Proposals for New QoS Classes for TCP/IPHoll, David J. 01 May 2003 (has links)
With a new United States Army initiative to exploit commercially developed information technology, there is a heightened interest in using Internet protocols over the military's geosynchronous satellite links. TCP is the dominant Internet protocol used for reliable data exchange, but its own design limits performance when used over long delay network links such as satellites. Initially this research set out to compare TCP with another proposed protocol, the Satellite Transport Protocol (STP). However through a series of tests, we found that STP does not fulfill its claims of increased throughput over TCP and uncovered a flaw in STP's founding research. In addition, this thesis proposes and demonstrates novel performance enhancing techniques that significantly improve transport protocol throughput.
