Distributed TCP Caching (DTC) substantially improves TCP performance in wireless sensor networks. We study DTC performance gains with two link layer error control mechanisms, namely link layer retransmissions and forward error control. Our results suggest that applying forward error correction to TCP acknowledgements is the best choice for our ongoing real implementation of DTC.
