This paper proposes a comprehensive analytical model for deriving receiver sensitivity and minimum transmit power in 802.15.6 wireless body area networks (WBANs). Formulas derived for both receiver sensitivity and minimum transmit power are determined by the signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio at the output port of the receiver, the noise floor, and the receiver noise figure. Minimum transmit power also depends...
Power saving for mobile stations (MSs) is one of the most critical issues in IEEE 802.16j relay networks. To reduce power consumption of MSs, IEEE 802.16j borrows the sleep mode of 802.16e, but new parameters are introduced. Up to now, no previous work has addressed the sleep scheduling problem in IEEE 802.16j networks. Therefore, this paper proposes an energy-efficient, standard-compliant sleep scheduling...
The 3GPP LTE-A (Long Term Evolution-Advanced) is the most promising technology for next-generation wireless communications. It provides high transmission rate up to 1 Gbps and supports plentiful multimedia services, especially for those bandwidth required multicast type of services, such as IPTV and Voice/Video-over-IP services. However, when users activate more services at their user equipments (UEs),...
Power management is one of the most important issues in IEEE 802.16e wireless networks. In the standard, it defines three types of power saving classes (PSCs) for flows with different QoS characteristics. It allows a mobile device to turn off its wireless radio when all its PSCs are in sleep states. In this paper, we consider the scheduling of power saving classes of type II in an IEEE 802.16e network...
This work addresses the mini-slot scheduling problem in IEEE 802.16d wireless mesh networks (WMNs). A practical mini-slot scheduling needs to take into account following issues: the transmission overhead, the scheduling complexity, and the signaling overhead to notify the scheduling results to subscriber stations. We focus in a grid-based WMN, which is the most recommended topology due to its high...
