This thesis is based on some applications of Markov chains and decision processes for congestion and power control. First, we study the behaviour of the window size of an MIMD congestion control algorithm when subject to different loss processes. We show that the logarithm of the window size follows an additive recursive equation, which can be modelled as a Markov chain. We also show that the throughput is inversely proportional to the packet loss probability. Next, we study a continuous time model for the window size of a general increase and instantaneous decrease congestion control algorithm. We provide conditions under which two congestion control algorithms have related window size behaviour. Next, we model the ratio of the instantaneo...
