In the proposed scheme, the sender is signaled by two types of acknowledgment （ACK） packets.Before decoding, packet loss probability isestimated on the receiver side and encapsulated intoa soft ACKand sent to the sender.After decoding,decoding results are encapsulated into hard ACKsandsent to the sender. There are two contributionsin the proposed scheme： 1. Empl layer calculation instead layer statistics to estimate oying physical of application the packet loss probability of space channel, which can improvethe accuracy and practicality. 2. A cascade overhead-failure probability relationship between the sender and the receiver has been analyzed to help determine the exact numberof packetsneeded byfountain decoding.Simulations show that for space communications,compared with the existing space transport protocols, fountain codes based transport protoeolwith the proposed schemecan not only ensure transmission reliability, but also greatly improvelink utilization.展开更多

This paper briefly introduces several available MPLS VPN multicast approaches, and then analyzes their disadvantages. A novel mechanism that uses two-layer label stack to support MPLS VPN explicit multicast is proposed and the process is discussed in detail. The scalability and performance of the proposed mechanism are studied analytically. The result shows that our solution has great advantage over the currently available scheme in terms of saving core network bandwidth and improving the scalability.展开更多

Space Communication Protocol Standards-Transport Protocol (SCPS-TP) is a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) enhancement method aimed at improving its performance in space and interplanetary Internet and is expected to have capability of being feasible applied to experimental evaluation of the effectiveness of SCPS-TP in coping with long channel delay. This paper presents an experimental evaluation of channel delay impact on throughput performance of SCPS-TP over LEO/GEO-stationary space links using a test-bed, compared with the widely deployed TCP.展开更多

Without automatic configuration mechanism, the stability and flexibility of the synchronization network built upon NTP protocol are not satisfying. P2P’s resource discovery mechanism is used to look for time sources in a synchronization network, and according to the network environment and node’s quality, the synchronization network is constructed dynamically.展开更多

文摘NTP is nowadays the most widely used distributed network time protocol, which aims at synchronizing the clocks of computers in a network and keeping the accuracy and validation of the time information which is transmitted in the network. Without automatic configuration mechanism, the stability and flexibility of the synchronization network built upon NTP protocol are not satisfying. P2P’s resource discovery mechanism is used to look for time sources in a synchronization network, and according to the network environment and node’s quality, the synchronization network is constructed dynamically.
