AbstractIn this paper, we propose models and schemes for coded and uncoded packet transmission over time invariant (TIC) and time variant (TVC) channels. We provide an approximation of the delay induced assuming fmite number of time slots to transmit a given number of packets. We propose an adaptive physical layer (PHY)-aware coded scheme that designs smart acknowledgments (ACK) via an optimal selection of coded packets to transmit at a given SNR. We apply our proposed schemes to channels with complex fading behavior and high round trip (RTT) delays. We compare the accuracy of TVC coded scheme to the TIC coded scheme, and we show the throughput-delay efficacy of adaptive coded schemes driven by PHY-awareness in the mitigation of high RTT environments, with up to 3 fold gains.
