We consider the issue of designing a generic transport layer protocol for energy-constrained sensor networks. present requirements such and propose transmission control (STCP). STCP is generic, scalable reliable where majority functionalities are implemented at base station. offers controlled variable reliability, congestion detection avoidance, supports multiple applications in same network. design implementation evaluate with different scenarios network characteristics.
