Abstract

TCP sessions passing through a network, such as a wireless network, may be optimized based on conditions corresponding to the radio interface of the wireless network. In one implementation, a method may include monitoring, by a base station, performance parameters relating to a radio access network (RAN); determining, based on the performance parameters, one or more protocol data units (PDUs) to retransmit; determining one or more Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) sessions and packet sequence numbers corresponding to the one or more PDUs; and transmitting, to a network device, an indication to retransmit packets corresponding to the one or more TCP sessions and packet sequence numbers.
