Abstract: Conventional TCP performance is significantly impaired under long latency and/or constrained bandwidth. While small Pacific Island states on satellite links experience this in the extreme, small populations and remoteness often rule out submarine fibre connections and their communities struggle to reap the benefits of the Internet. Network-coded TCP (TCP/NC) can increase goodput under high latency and packet loss, but has not been used to tunnel conventional TCP and UDP across satellite links before. We report on a feasibility study aimed at determining expected goodput gain across such TCP/NC tunnels into island targets on geostationary and medium earth orbit satellite links.
