Abstract

Next generation of mobile networks are expected to assure super fast data transfer with very low delay. The initial 5G standardization is expected to be finalized around 2020. Enhanced mobile broadband with its corresponding demand of higher capacity and end user data rates represents the key driver of 5G network development. The transport protocols are directly correlated with the traffic rate, so they must be kept in the focus and should be properly designed. In this paper we present 5G-TCP as new applicable solution that improves the protocol performances over super fast mobile networks.
