In this paper, we propose an efficient energy-management framework in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to address the fundamental research challenge imposed by both the maintenance of the energy supply and the support of the quality-of-information (QoI) requirements. By quantifying the QoI benefit the tasks receive in relation to the level of QoI they request as the QoI satisfaction index), we propose...
This paper considers multiaccess control for the uplink in orthogonal-frequency-division-multiple-access (OFDMA) wireless networks. To avoid extensive information exchange with the access point in centralized approaches, we propose a distributed threshold-based scheme, where each user accesses multiple channels simultaneously based on a comparison between measured channel gains and a channel gain...
This paper addresses the problem of designing channel-aware access control (CAAC) algorithms for cognitive radio networks. To protect the primary transmission, the access probabilities of secondary users are adjusted based on the channel-state information and the measured interference temperature. It is shown that the proposed CAAC algorithm always converges to a fixed point. Furthermore, the CAAC...
We consider the distributed random access algorithms for wireless ad hoc networks in which each node needs to tune its persistent probability so as to optimize its own the total throughput. First, we present an asynchronous algorithm for updating persistent probabilities and prices to avoid collision using local coordination. By casting this algorithm as a best response in a cooperative game, we characterize...
