Abstract

Performance of bi-directional communication protocols, working under networked routing, is significantly dependent on the amount of reliability they offer during a data transmission session. A novel transport-layer protocol, namely, Variable Reliability Dataflow Protocol (VRDP) was earlier developed by the author that successfully incorporated customization, so far as selecting a desired level of reliability was concerned. However, it addressed only the generic lemma of the protocol, barring its actual application potentials. In this paper, we propose a refined enhanced version of erstwhile VRDP, wherein specific focus has been brought in towards activation and/or information retrieval of/from a robotized system. The currently developed architecture, namely, Variable Reliability Transport Protocol, is in a way more transparent from end-use point of view and is an advanced top-up over the earlier protocol. This paper delineates the algorithmic lemma, functional paradigms, mathematical model and characterization of the developed protocol and presents its performance benchmarking with the existing protocols, vide TCP & UDP, vetted by field - trials with a robotic sensor.
