Abstract

Currently, tens of millions of devices around the world communicate with/ each other via cellular networks. In this paper, we study the stability of network content delivery protocols to the effects of network interference. To conduct the research, a tool was developed that allows testing of protocols, such as TCP, UDP, and QUIC. The analysis and comparison of the obtained test results were carried out. In the conclusion, the best protocols for content delivery were shown
