Disturbance-Rejection Analysis of TCP-Based Wireless Networks in an Uncertain Channel using PID Control Techniques

Abstract

Wireless networks experience some uncertainties which results from an unpredictable nature of wireless signals, interferences and signal propagation, leading to overall degradation of the entire system. The results lead to packet loss, fading, delays, reduced throughput and low latency. This paper is aimed at using PID Control Techniques to track network uncertainties in a TCP-based network and at the same time cancels it to enhanced the overall system performances. System performance measurement and analysis of the TCP- based network was performed with a link capacity of 3750, 4200 and 4500 packet/seconds respectively in three scenarios. The results showed that the PID control technique recorded sensitivity value of 0.0329dB, 0.0345dB and 0.0821dB. (all are less than 1dB), this means that it achieved good sensitivity levelto network disturbance for faster disturbance rejection capability and reduced sensitivity. I however recommend the PID control technique for wireless network improvement to attain enhanced performance, stability and good QoS.
