Abstract

This study investigates the difficulties of the CUBIC TCP algorithm, focusing on the trade-off between efficiency and fairness in window congestion control. The CUBIC approach, which was devised to optimize high-bandwidth and long-distance networks, is currently widely used as the default TCP congestion control algorithm in Linux and other systems. Our work investigates the dynamics of CUBIC's window expansion, specifically the interaction between the cubic function and the most recent congestion event. We look at how this interplay impacts the distribution of window widths, throughput, round-trip time (RTT), loss rate, and queue size under different network configurations. Keywords: TCP CUBIC, Window Congestion, Efficiency-Fairness Trade-Off, TCP’s Cubic Function.
