Abstract
This document outlines possible TCP enhancements that may allow TCP
to better utilize the available bandwidth provided by networks
containing satellite links. The algorithms and mechanisms outlined
have not been judged to be mature enough to be recommended by the
IETF. The goal of this document is to educate researchers as to the
current work and progress being done in TCP research related to
satellite networks.
