The Internet of Things (IoT) aims at connecting a very large number of devices using an Internet-like architecture. Machine-to-machine (M2M) networks are considered the main component of the IoT. Long-term evolution (LTE) and LTE-advanced (LTE-A) are excellent candidates for supporting M2M communications due to their native IP connectivity and scalability for massive number of devices. Therefore,...
WiMAX is receiving growing attention as a reliable contender for broadband network applications. Therefore, it is important to develop measures and benchmarks for the performance of this relatively new technology. These benchmarks are intended for service providers in order to be able to plan their networks properly to ensure robust and continuous service to their networks' end users. In this paper,...
In this study we develop a hybrid (dual- strategy) routing protocol for wireless sensor networks. This protocol can be used for two purposes at the same time. First, the protocol is responsible for routing data within sensor networks. These networks are composed of nodes with different capabilities and resources. The routing in this case is data-oriented. That is, it searches for nodes that can provide...
In this study, we derive an analytical model that determines the conditions that lead to throughput-starvation in Wimax-based networks. We limit our discussion to downlink traffic in point-to-multipoint (PMP) based networks. The objective of our model is to define the probability of a subscriber station becoming throughput starved under different operating conditions. The model also defines the probability...
In this study, we present a performance evaluation of an energy conservation technique designed for mobile ad hoc networks. This technique was designed with energy fairness central to its operation. This algorithm is not a routing algorithm. It works with existing routing protocols to complement their functionality from an energy-efficiency perspective. We show that this technique scales well with...
