Abstract

This paper considers two key elements of transport protocols: reliability and congestion control. A logical analysis of the relative advantages and disadvantages of each in the specific context of low volume, independent and relatively critical messages, such as those involved in VoIP signaling is presented. Further to the conclusions of this analysis a proposal for a new Reliable Signaling Datagram Protocol (RSDP) is specified. The Network Simulator, ns2, is used to assess and demonstrate the performance benefits of this newly proposed transport protocol.
