This paper presents a hopless networking paradigm. Incorporating recent techniques of rateless codes, senders break packets into rateless information streams and each single stream automatically adapts to diverse channel qualities at all potential receivers, regardless of their hop distances. The receivers are capable of accumulating rateless information pieces from different senders and jointly decoding...
In wireless sensor networks, multi-node cooperative relaying (MR) scheme represents a potential candidate to combat the effects of channel fading by exploiting diversity gain achieved via cooperation among the relays nodes. But, a great many of relaying channels are employed in MR system, which means that the number of required channels, the energy consumption and transmission delay all increase linearly...
In this paper, we develop an energy cooperation scheme for secondary users' (SU) spectrum access in the hybrid energy supply primary system, which will improve both energy efficiency and spectral efficiency. Specifically, the cooperation is implemented into two stages. In the first stage, the secondary system is allowed to access the licensed for secondary transmission. Simultaneously, the primary...
Many-to-one transport results in congestion in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This is due to the sudden impulse of information flowing to a single destination by single branch. More attention has been paid to congestion control in WSN, but most research works in the past were apt to handle it by controlling output sending rate, and seldom sought solutions on utilizing the idle resources of non-congestion...
In this paper, we study the selfish behavior in wireless sensor networks and apply a game theory method to address this problem in a CSMA/CA protocol. More specifically, we formulate the Media Access Control (MAC) layer activity in sensor networks as an optimization problem in terms of the random accessing problem. Then we propose a distributed algorithm for the system to reach the Nash Equilibrium...
In cognitive radio networks, in order to avoid collision to primary user (PU), cognitive radio (CR) user ought to sense the spectrum periodically to certify that PU is absent. However, the collision to PU also occurs due to imperfect sensing or PU's returning when CR user is transmitting. In this paper, we study a transmitting-collision tradeoff problem in cognitive radio networks. In particular,...
Vehicles in Intelligent Transportation System employ IEEE 802.11p/1609 protocols to communicate with other vehicles or roadside infrastructure within a specific area. Messages related with traffic safety can be delivered timely for collision avoidance and etc. Meanwhile, non-safety related infotainment messages can also be transmitted besides safety-critical information. Many of the safety critical...
Concerning event-driven wireless sensor network scenario where the traffic has burst-bulk characteristic, an intra-flow network coding based opportunistic multipath routing protocol called Code Paths was proposed. A routing metric taking delay and congestion factors into account has been defined and implemented, which is used to establish gradient field from nodes to sink. When an event occurs in...
Effective capacity is a useful technique to characterize the system throughput with statistical delay-constrained quality of service (QoS) guarantees. In this paper, we integrate effective capacity theory into superposition-coding (SPC) based multicast transmission to devise the efficient channel-aware multicasting scheme in wireless networks. Specifically, we propose to optimize the effective capacity...
