TCP over satellite : a review of TCP over satellite links : problems and suggested solutions / Peter Andreadis and Jing Peng.: Co24-3/8-2001-1E-PDF
"The most dominant transport protocol used in sending Internet applications is the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Although TCP was designed to provide reliable end-to-end connections over various types of networks, it has several problems when running over long delay paths such as satellite links. Large bandwidth-delay products and high bit error rates are the two major factors that affect most connections using TCP over satellite. Current research suggests that two major problems of TCP are the coupling between congestion detection and error control, and the inefficiency of the congestion control and loss recovery algorithms over long delay paths such as satellite links"--Abstract, page v.
