   Title:   QUIC Profile for Deep Space
   Authors: Marc Blanchet
            Wesley M. Eddy
   Name:    draft-ietf-tiptop-quic-profile-00.txt
   Pages:   25

Abstract:

   Deep space communications involve long delays (e.g., the Earth to
   Mars one-way delay is ~4-20 minutes) and often intermittent
   communications.  In this context, the default transport parameters of
   QUIC stacks, tuned for the terrestrial Internet, are not suitable for
   deep space.  This document defines a QUIC profile for deep space.  It
   provides guidance on how to estimate and set transport parameters,
   advice to space mission operators and application developers on how
   to configure QUIC for the deep space use case, and guidance to QUIC
   stack developers on properly exposing the required transport
   parameters in their API.
