Tiivistelmä
This thesis was written as a result of a case in the company Comin Ltd. The objective was set to im-plement a UDP communication setup to replace the existing TCP one. The focus of this thesis was on the problems that were faced during the process of writing a UDP client-server application, explain-ing the reasons behind the observed high rates of packet loss and low network utilization rates.
The main methods that were used for the measurements were network parameters analysis to see how much of the network channel was used, and packet capturing to analyse if there are any packet loss or corruption during transmission.
The results reached were sufficient for the particular case of local area networks. By implementing congestion control for UDP the utilization rates were successfully increased and the reliability of TCP was reached.
