Faultless and timely multipath packets delivery probability in computer networks using UDP-based protocol

Timely and faultless packets delivery problem in real-time systems is described in the paper. New method of transfer packets with high probability of faultless and timely packets delivery is presented. This approach based on UDP protocol and using redundant transmissions via multipath reserve channels between client and server. For efficiency evaluation of our approach we use the multiplicative criteria based on faultless and timely packets delivery probability and average delivery time reserve regarding delivery time restriction defined in the real-time computer system. The efficiency of redundant multipath transmissions is analyzed and researched via experiments with developed simulation models in OMNeT++ environment. This paper can be useful for network engineers who develop new transport or application layer protocols to provide reliable network transmissions in computer networks.
