Modelling of UDP throughput

Abstract

User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is designed as light weight protocol with no support for handshaking, ordering and error recovery etc. Hence, UDP is a preferred protocol where reliability can be traded-off for the end-to-end delay experienced by the users. This makes UDP suitable for delay sensitive traffic such as video and voice applications. In the literature, various models have been presented for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), a dominant transport protocol for the Internet. There does not exist any model for the UDP throughput calculation to the best of our knowledge. There is no significant work available which analyses the effect of TCP flows on the fellow UDP flows in the Internet. In this paper we have presented a algorithmic model for the UDP throughput in the presence of TCP and implemented with empirical values. We have validated the results for UDP throughput in the presence of TCP using ns2 based simulations.
