The QUIC (Quick UDP Internet Connection) protocol suite is going to approach its final stages of standardization to become part of the official Internet standards (RFCs) and of the new HTTP/3 specification.

Abstract
The QUIC (Quick UDP Internet Connection) protocol suite is going to approach its final stages of standardization to become part of the official Internet standards (RFCs) and of the new HTTP/3 specification. Some of its disruptive characteristics, such as the 0-RTT establishment of secure communications and a connection-oriented management over a UDP-based connection-less transport, can be reused and tailored in the framework of a Performance Enhancing Proxy (PEP) architecture for the effective management of multiple links. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of a QUIC-based splitting solution to enhance the communication across multiple backhaul links, each associated with a different network technology (e.g., satellite and terrestrial). After discussing the working principles of the designed QUIC-based proxy, we present a software implementation, as well as preliminary results obtained, through a set of meaningful test-cases deployed over a Linux based testbed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
