Abstract
In recent years, several new TCP congestion control algorithms have been proposed to improve TCP performance for networks of high bandwidth delay products. Satellite-HAP networks providing high-speed data transmissions (up to 1 Gb/s). This article aims to show that the proposed new TCP, as a modification of TCPs congestion control mechanism, allows it to achieve reasonable performance in Satellite-HAP networks. In this paper, we implement the performance simulation in NS-2, and the results demonstrate that the proposed new TCP for Satellite-HAP networks has a considerable performance improvement comparing with the other variations of TCP.
