As I think someone else pointed out, better is its companion I-D, which
isn't about "research" but existing mechanisms:
Title : Enhancing TCP Over Satellite Channels using
Standard Mechanisms

And, wearing my official IETF hat, let me state unambiguously: there's no
IETF document that TCP/IP is limited to paths with link latencies under
125 msec; speaking plainly, that's absurd; and at a recent research meeting
I was at, we debated whether TCP can work with RTTs of several minutes.
