While LTE can provide competitive peak data rates and a relatively low latency, there is still room for solutions improving end-users’ Quality-of-Experience by optimizing services running over the LTE infrastructure. Being the most widespread transport protocol, TCP is in the main focus of such research projects. A widely recommended solution for TCP performance improvement is the split connection TCP proxy that divides the end-to-end TCP connection into two independent connections, that results increased throughput and faster error recovery. This paper investigates the performance of a split connection TCP proxy deployed in LTE’s SAE-GW. Numerical results show significant performance improvement of file downloading, web browsing and video steaming applications in case of not congested transport networks. %G English %Z TC 6 %Z WG 6.2 %Z WG 6.6 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01543142/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01543142/file/978-3-642-32808-4_24_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01543142 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01543142 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC6 %~ IFIP-WG6-6 %~ IFIP-WG6-2 %~ IFIP-EUNICE %~ IFIP-LNCS-7479
