Abstract: Now a days, Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) work as the backbone for almost everything can be done online in the internet. The main advantages of TCP are always guarantees three things which are the data arrives its destination correctly, the data reaches there in the correct order and the data arrives there without loss or duplication. The main advantage of UDP is that UDP is not a connection based communication model, thus UDP is much faster than TCP. This study proposes a new protocol which combines the advantages of TCP and UDP. In other words, we will avoid the disadvantages of TCP and UDP by using the proposal protocol and as a result improving the performance of the network from the side of data transmission speed and integrity. Therefore, ensuring the arrival of packets in the correct order and avoiding the unnecessary connection between source and destination before any transmission. We fine transmission parameters such as correct delay time before any transmission depending on the efficiency of the path between source and destination. Thus, we got that the proposed protocol has a significant impact on the network traffic compared with standard TCP and UDP.
