Performance analysis of Google’s Quick UDP Internet Connection Protocol under Software Simulator

Abstract

Abstract The QUIC protocol (Quick UDP Internet Connection) is a transport based over UDP Protocol (User Datagram Protocol) that provides safe, reliable and fast service on the Internet. Google proposed it to solve the problem of network delay. It is efficient, fast, and takes up fewer resources. The QUIC gathers the advantages of both TCP and UDP. QUIC is a user-level protocol running on top of UDP, which considered by IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force). Google assumes the response time of page load was short so that end-user performance was better. In this paper, the results presented on a local test using NS-3 (network simulator version 3) that allows QUIC output to test and design choices and possible limitations present the description of the functionalities and the main assumptions of the internet QUIC.
