TCP OPTIMIZATION & ACCELERATION

Accelerating mobile data at the network level

The dramatic increase in traffic on mobile data networks means operators need to maximize network capacity without sacrificing the end-user experience. TCP Accelerator's accelerated delivery of content and comprehensive TCP optimization in the network ensures the most efficient use of resources. TCP Accelerator works in conjunction with the Openwave optimization product portfolio to deliver the best customer experience at the least possible cost.

Efficient Network Utilization

Traditional TCP was not designed with mobile networks in mind. Even sporadic packet loss, not necessarily caused by congestion, can drastically slow transfer rates and webpage loading times and degrade the video streaming experience, leading to customer dissatisfaction.

TCP Accelerator is a clientless solution that accelerates the mobile Internet experience through optimal bandwidth utilization and TCP Optimization, providing subscribers with faster browsing and more immediate access to content. It does this by maximizing the efficiency of the transport layer in mobile data networks. It also reduces webpage loading and rendering times through the compression and caching of popular content close to the user.

Mobile Operator Benefits

Improved Quality of Experience that results in increased revenue: TCP Accelerator improves the effective subscriber throughput by up to 30% and reduces loading times by up to 40%, even in adverse network conditions.

Optimal utilization of network resources that maximizes profitability: by accelerating at the TCP level and transferring data faster, network resources are released earlier and can be further consumed by more users.

Deferment in network investment: due to RAN coverage expansion, through a significant improvement in the delivery of data under variable network conditions, where traditional TCP operation is ineffective.

Optimal Efficiency for All TCP Traffic, Including HTTPS

Advanced image optimization technology reduces the time needed to deliver image content while retaining the visual quality, file format and image resolution.

In-Memory Web Cache With Optimized Content

TCP Accelerator includes a highly efficient and distributed in-memory cache especially optimized for today’s small volatile web objects where optimized variants of the content are stored. This in-memory architecture minimizes the latency associated with I/O operations, web loading times are significantly reduced, improving subscribers’ QoE.

Distributed Video Cache and Offline Video Optimization

An offline optimization process is scheduled to generate as many different optimized variants of the original video as profiles are defined in the system. The system determines whether a given video object is available in the cache by inspecting the video fingerprint – as opposed to traditional video ID or URL-based approaches – maximizing the cache hit ratio.
