Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) for Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP)

As a promising candidate of general-purpose transport layer protocol, the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) has its new features such as multi-homing and multi-streaming. SCTP association can make concurrent multi-path transfer an appealing candidate to satisfy the ever increasing user demands for bandwidth by using Multi-homing feature. And multiple streams provide an aggregation mechanism to accommodate heterogeneous objects, which belong to the same application but may require different QoS from the network. In this paper, the authors introduce WM2-SCTP (Wireless Multi-path Multi-flow - Stream Control Transmission Protocol), a transport layer solution for concurrent multi-path transfer with parallel sub-flows. WM2-SCTP aims at exploiting SCTP's multi-homing and multi-streaming capability by grouping SCTP streams into sub-flows based on their required QoS and selecting best paths for each sub-flow to improve data transfer rates. The results show that under different scenarios WM2-SCTP is able to support QoS among the SCTP stream, and it achieves a better throughput.

Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a new generation of reliable transport layer protocol, unlike TCP, it has new features of multi-homing and multi-streaming, and has good scalability. SCTP is expected to replace TCP as the next generation of universal transport layer protocol. We introduce and analyze the basic structure and features of SCTP, introduce the related research of SCTP, including the implementation method of mobile SCTP and the Concurrent Multipath Transfer mechanism. Finally, compared and analyzed the performance of TCP, SCTP and SCTP-CMT by the ns-2 simulations, results show that in the case of multiple paths are available, the transmission performance of SCTP and SCTP-CMT are both better than TCP.

Protocol Analyzer

This study aims to analyze Performance of TCP, UDP and SCTP Protocol on Multimedia Traffic. The TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) protocol, UDP (User Datagram Protocol) and SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) reside on the same layer in the OSI-Layer at the Transport layer that controls the flow of data, data packets and so on. This research uses windows operating system and Softperfect Network Protocol Analyzer software. Where network analysis software has a complete feature such as can filter almost all the protocol on the OSI-Layer, has a report of easy to read results and so forth. From the test results conducted for three days by analyzing the online and offline way obtained SCTP protocol results both for Multimedia activities but can not be used simultaneously with other activities (such as video conversations). for everyday activities should use TCP and UDP protocol because it tends to be stable.Keyword : TCP, UDP, SCTP

Multimedia Transmissions

The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) establishes a transport layer framework for multihomed communication where the standard failover mechanism improves the transmission resilience. A delay-centric handover mechanism for SCTP have been proposed to improve the end-to-end delay of real-time multimedia transmissions. In this paper, we explore the coexistence of delay-centric handover and standard SCTP failover to identify whether they work together to select a communication path that preserves voice transmission quality. The study was performed using computer simulations, which allowed us to evaluate users' perceived quality and network stability for several conditions of traffic load and packet loss ratio. Although voice quality is generally improved, conflicting decision about interface selection resulted in performance degradation under certain conditions. The global stability of the delay-centric operation when multiple independent voice transmissions compete for the available bandwidth was also evaluated. Simulations showed that under high link utilization, instabilities due to frequent path switching may lead to lower voice quality.

Congestion Control Mechanism

The technologies of Wireless local networks and cellular network are very popular and more and more service under the integrated heterogeneous environment. Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is considered as an ideal to support the communication between them by enabling a mobile client to freely switch the IP address in different networks. In this paper, we propose an extended analytical model for SCTP which consider the congestion window and scalable of congestion control mechanism. A great advantage of our model is that establishing a relationship between the throughput and congestion control mechanism. Furthermore, the analytical model provides a useful tool to improve congestion control mechanism of SCTP.
