Potential safety and non safety applications of vehicular network provide solutions to current traffic system. Dynamic topology of the vehicular communication network and high speed of the vehicles make it a challenging task of authenticating the users. Researchers have proposed different types of authentication mechanisms for secure vehicular communication. We propose a new and practical card-based...
The IEEE 802.16e standard, also known as mobile WiMAX, has emerged as an exciting mobile wireless communication technology that promises to offer both high throughput and guaranteed quality of service (QoS). Call admission control (CAC) scheme serves as a useful tool for WiMAX, which ensures that resources are not overcommitted and thereby, all existing connections enjoy guaranteed QoS. Existing CAC...
Vehicular adhoc networks are subclass of mobile adhoc network. Broadcast is a commonly used technique for communication. Different techniques are proposed for broadcast but they can't consider the importance of message except relevance based approach. Relevance based approach is the only scheme that forward relevant message for sharing and discard the surplus messages. The relevance based approach...
WiMAX has emerged as a promising wireless communication technology with potential to deliver high throughput and guaranteed quality of service to the end applications. Recent studies suggest that while WiMAX (802.16e) is capable of delivering a data rate of up to 75 Mbps for fixed wireless communications, data rate decreases drastically for mobile wireless communications, often providing a data rate...
In the IEEE 802.15.4 medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless sensor networks, a sensor node needs to associate with a coordinator before it starts sending or receiving data. The sensor node will mostly choose the nearest coordinator to associate with. However, this method is not suitable for a constantly moving sensor node because it will end up switching coordinators too often due to short...
Communication in VANETS needs consideration of high mobility, congestion, collision and reliability factors. The successful delivery of important messages needs high reliability in case of TCP traffic during high congestion. Reliability and performance of priority based traffic is better than for same priority traffic and produces different results. In this paper we have analyzed the performance of...
The IEEE 802.16 standard, also known as WiMAX, has yet to prove its effectiveness when the end terminals are not static and free to move at vehicular speeds. High bit error rate caused by multipath fading at high vehicular speeds, is the key reason for low throughput at high speeds. Standard error control mechanisms like transmission control protocol (TCP) and forward error correction (FEC) have limited...
The IEEE 802.15.4 standard medium access control (MAC) protocol for low rate wireless personal area networks (LRWPAN) is design mainly for static sensor networks and its capability to support mobile sensor networks has not yet been established. To the best knowledge of authors, this is the first paper that evaluates the suitability of IEEE 802.15.4 MAC in mobile sensor networks environment. We evaluate...
Voice over IP (VoIP) and voice-video over IP (VIoIP) are becoming very popular and widespread. These types of real-time services produce streams that are almost symmetrical in nature. A new token passing media access control (MAC) developed by our group, called wireless token network (WTN), has been designed with QoS guarantees in mind. We have previously shown in our previous paper (2006) that WTN...
Content-based image retrieval over wireless networks is a challenging research problem. In this paper, we present an efficient content-based image retrieval framework, which is developed for mobile platforms in client-server architecture and uses a combination of various low-level visual features. Several techniques were adapted in order to achieve the retrieval efficiency and query speed on mobile...
