By exploiting the properties advertised window, a TCP connection can be "frozen", i.e. the sender keeps it congestion window, by advertising a window of size zero. This is explited when the mobile unit is about to do a handoff, to prevent packets from getting lost and regarded as congestion indication. When the handoff is complete, the receiver sends a triple acknowledgement and opens up the window. The transmission then continues as before. Experiments have been performed by using a modified version of Linux 2.1.101, and show quite promising results. [ed. note: however, I think one must take into account the number of handoffs that are probable in a real environment, in the simulation they have 100 disconnection events during a ~20 sec transmission.]. Key advantages are that it is a true end-to-end modification, and very rarely perform worse than baseline TCP.},
