Abstract
Efficient transmission control is an intricate issue in vehicular networks due to the inherent topology dynamics and unreliable link conditions. Leveraging flexible management in software-defined vehicular networks, we propose a software-defined adaptive transmission control protocol (SATCP) for selecting various transmission control policies to adapt to the time-varying vehicular environment. We formulate the optimal transmission control problem, and develop a practical heuristic algorithm for adaptive transmission control. NS-3 based preliminary simulations are conducted to verify that SATCP achieves an improvement by 27.8% than TcpHtcp, and by 54.4% than TcpVegas in terms of average network throughput.
