Abstract:
Ordinary TCP loss recovery takes at least one round-trip time and as
such can increase application-perceived latency, especially for short
flows such as Web transactions. TCP Instant Recovery (TCP-IR) is an
experimental algorithm that allows a receiving end to recover lost
packets without retransmissions, thus potentially saving at least one
full round-trip time compared to standard TCP. TCP-IR achieves this
by judiciously injecting encoded data segments within a TCP stream.
This document describes the TCP-IR algorithm at the sending and
receiving ends, along with the required protocol changes.
