Outline of Research at the Start |
This research leverages the potential power of TCP/NC and its tunneling technique to cope with the diverse and dynamic conditions of end-to-end data transfer in IoT. The final target is to design, implement and evaluate an overlay network scheme that can well balance the reliability, goodput, latency, and energy-efficiency with only a small number of intelligent gateways deployed. The tunneling system should be applicable and tunable, and be responsible for congestion control, path optimization, and error recovery by a joint control of data transmission and routing with information coding.

Outline of Final Research Achievements |
My research focuses on improving TCP/NC protocol and proposing its application called TCP/NC tunneling in the lossy network. The proposed TCP/NC can apply in many scenarios such as PLC networks, heavy and burst lossy networks, bi-directional loss networks, and multipath networks. And the proposed TCP/NC can achieve a high goodput performance compared to other protocols. Besides, the proposed TCP/NC tunneling also proves its advantage in applying some specific scenarios, such as IoT networks, where cannot apply TCP/NC (e.g., limitation of end devices)

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
With the proposed model of TCP/NC tunneling, we can apply the advantage of TCP/NC on the practical IoT networks where the link is almost unstable, lossy. It can improve the data transfer performance to adapt to the requirement of IoT scenarios, e.g., the next generation of cloud/edge computing.
