 ABSTRACT

• Congestion control in computer network is an important issue to be

addressed. Various congestion protocols are used for avoiding congestion in
network..

• Widely implemented topology in Internet is Heterogeneous networks which

are a combination of wired andwireless networks.

• Some of the most known and recent protocols developed to provide faster
and lighter congestion control are TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and
the Rate Control Protocol (RCP).

• This paper provides performance comparison of TCP, RCP+ and our

proposed algorithm RCP++ in hybrid network.
 INTRODUCTION

• In this experiment we have to analyze the performance of TCP,

RCP+ and proposed model RCP++. This experiment aims at studying
the effects of hybrid (wired and wireless) networks on TCP, RCP+
and RCP++ by the researchers of this experiment in presence of
heterogeneous network configurations.

• This experiment covers maximum of the performance parameters

like Throughput, Dropped Packet, End to End Delay, Packet
Delivery Ratio and Network Routing Load.
 NETWORK CONGESTION
•Indata networking and queueing theory, network congestion
occurs when a link or node is carrying so much data that its quality of
service deteriorates
•A consequence of these latter two is that incremental increases in
offered load lead either only to small increase in network throughput,
or to an actual reduction in network throughput.
•Congestioncollapse is a condition which a packet switched computer
network can reach, when little or no useful communication is
happening due to congestion.
 CONGESTION CONTROL
•Congestion control concerns controlling traffic entry into a telecommunication
network.
•So as to avoid congestive collapse by attempting to avoid oversubscription of
any of the processing or link capabilities of the intermediate nodes and
networks and taking resource reducing steps, such as reducing the rate of
sending packets. A consequence of these latter two is that incremental
increases in offered load lead either only to small increase in network
throughput, or to an actual reduction in network throughput.
•Itshould not be confused with flow control, which prevents the sender from
overwhelming the receiver.

 CONCLUSION
• Tomeasure the actual strength of the
hybrid network, different parameters
considered here are Throughput, Packet
Delivery Ratio and Delay.We made
thorough study of all the congestion control
protocols that we are going to use in our
project.Thus we also learned how to use
NS-2 software.
