I-TCP
nbasic idea: split communication between mobile host (MH) and
fixed host (FH) into two separate interactions
neach connection can be tuned to accommodate the special
characteristics of the underlying physical media
–use
standard TCP between MSR and FH, both on wired backbone
–special
wireless TCP between MH and MSR, where packet loss does not trigger congestion
avoidance
