abstract = "The IETF has recently been standardizing the QUIC protocol for HTTP/3 services. It is noted that HTTP/3 uses QUIC as the underlying
protocol, whereas HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 are based on TCP. Differently from TCP, the QUIC uses 0-RTT or 1-RTT transmissions to reduce
the connection establishment delays of TCP and SCTP. Moreover, to solve the head-of-line blocking problem, QUIC uses the
multi-streaming feature. In addition, QUIC provides various features, including the connection migration, and it is available at the Chrome
browser. In this paper, we analyze the performance of QUIC for HTTP-based web and streaming services by comparing with the existing
TCP and Streaming Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) in the network environments with different link delays and packet error rates.
From the experimental results, we can see that QUIC provides better throughputs than TCP and SCTP, and the gaps of performances
get larger, as the link delays and packet error rates increase."
