Abstract
Studying the interaction between two or more flows competing for shared resources in a network, has helped in the understanding of how the congestion control mechanisms of different TCP variants, interact with each other. In these cases, it’s essential to understand how such interactions come to be and to determine, under certain parameters, if it is possible for the flows to coexist in the same environment. On the other hand, it’s interesting to analyze the preponderance which one might have above the others, in reference to bandwidth usage. In this paper, these aspects are analyzed in order to establish how such coexistence could be achieved, determining in what way two data flows of TCP variants might achieve a balanced state in a channel. This is done considering that nowadays, most networks present scenarios with heterogeneous paths due to mixed technologies, meaning that one might find routes that use wired and wireless mediums.
