US 10,567,978 B2 · Method and apparatus for setting initial window value in wireless communication system

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a 5G or pre-5G communication system to be provided for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G communication system such as an LTE. The present invention relates to a method by which a proxy sets an initial window value in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: splitting a transmission control protocol (TCP) connection between a terminal and a server; extracting the information related to the terminal from the data received from the terminal; and setting the initial window value on the basis of a round trip time (RTT) value and a throughput value for each of terminal groups grouped on the basis of the information related to the terminal.

Dependent claims

A proxy server m a wireless communication system, the proxy comprising:

a transceiver;
and
a processor configured to:
establish a transmission control protocol (TCP) connection between a user equipment (UE) and the proxy server,
receive a message comprising a cell ID for identifying a serving cell of the UE, a modulation and coding rate scheme (MCS) allocated to the UE and information related to a TCP flow between the UE and the proxy server from the UE,
identify a UE group based on the received message, the UE group having a plurality of UEs with both the cell ID and the MCS included in the received message, and
determine an initial window value for the TCP connection based on a round trip time (RTT) value and a throughput value corresponding to the identified UE group.
