FTA-NTN Framework Jointly Optimizes Throughput and Fairness in Multi-Layer LEO/MEO Constellations
FTA-NTN is a multi-objective optimization framework for NTNs that maximizes aggregate throughput and fairness using multi-layer Walker Delta constellations, parametric user mobility models for Canadian regions, adaptive K-Means clustering for beamforming and user association, and Bayesian optimizati…
ABC: Simple Explicit Congestion Control Excels on Wireless Networks
ABC is an explicit congestion control protocol for wireless networks where routers mark packets as "accelerate" or "brake" to guide senders toward a target rate via minor cwnd adjustments. It requires no header changes or device modifications, is incrementally deployable, and interoperates with non-…

Node.js Raw Socket ICMP Ping with Custom IP Header Construction
This code demonstrates crafting and sending raw ICMP echo request packets using Node.js raw-socket and ip modules. It manually constructs an IP packet with fixed header bytes, overwrites source/target IPs via buffer manipulation, randomizes ID, and sets total length dynamically before transmission. …
