But existing theoretical models of HBC are too simple to simulate the wave propagation on human body. In this work, in order to clarify the propagation mechanism of electromagnetic wave on human body, a surface waveguide HBC theoretical model based on stratified media cylinder is presented. A numerical model analyzed by finite element method(FEM) is used for comparing and validating the theoretical model. Finally, results of theoretical and numerical models from 80 MHz to 200 MHz agree fairly well, which means that theoretical model can characterize accurate propagation mechanism of HBC signal. Meanwhile, attenuation constants derived from two kinds of models are within the range from 1.64 to 3.37, so that HBC signal can propagate effectively on human body. The propagation mechanism derived from the theoretical model is useful to provide design information for the transmitter and the modeling of the propagation channel in HBC.展开更多

This paper analyzes the interaction between TCP and link layer retransmission scheme when the correlated packet are losses handled, indicates that a higher value of the maximum number of successive link layer timeout retransmissions has an adverse effect on TCP ability to perform congestion control rapidly. To achieve a better TCP performance, the paper proposes a strategy combining link-layer selective-reject automatic repeat request (ARQ) with explicit loss notification mechanism, which can respond to congestion quickly while keeping wireless link more reliable, and make TCP react to the different packet losses more suitably.展开更多
