We present LVRI, a hybrid link-state routing protocol based on exchange of link states in a region of interest. The region of interest (ROI) is defined as a connected component of the network that includes the source, destination nodes and the nodes that act as relays for the data. An ROI is established on-demand and exists as long as there are data to be sent. Each node in the region of interest...
We present an algorithm to assign time slots to nodes in a TDMA network that minimizes the jitter in time slot assignments. By reducing the jitter in time slots around the TDMA frame, we can provide more consistent network access and reduce the overall delay seen by an application with time-varying traffic patterns, such as normal web traffic. Our algorithm can reduce the average delay seen by all...
A new cross-layer design taking advantage of OFDMA in ad hoc networks is presented. OFDMA technology is exploited at the physical layer to improve data rate through multiuser diversity and to enhance network throughput by enabling multiple concurrent transmissions over orthogonal subchannels, each consisting of a group of tones. A new tone-assignment algorithm is presented that takes advantage of...
We introduce a new multiuser diversity concept with which multiple transmitters can communicate without causing significant interference to each other. The new scheme, called Opportunistic Interference Management (OIM), significantly reduces the feedback required in distributed Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems, and requires an encoding and decoding complexity that is similar to that of...
A new context-aware routing framework for multicast and unicast routing in mobile ad hoc networks is introduced. This framework, which is called CAROM (Context-Aware Routing over Ordered Meshes), uses regions of interest to identify connected components of the network that span sources and destinations of interest to restrict signaling to occur mostly within these regions. Context information is used...
We study the scaling laws for wireless ad hoc networks in which the distribution of n nodes in the network is homogeneous but the traffic they carry is heterogeneous. More specifically, we consider the case in which a given node is the data-gathering sink for k sources sending different information to it, while the rest of the s = n - k nodes participate in unicast sessions with random destinations...
