Because of the high cost of construction and maintenance of infrastructure-based networks, researchers have concentrated their efforts on studying wireless mesh/relay networks with lower cost and high scalability. Due to the demand for real-time multimedia communication in heterogeneous networks, IEEE 802.16 multi-hop mesh/relay networks with IEEE 802.11e WLANs for QoS support can be an effective...
WiMAX with wired infrastructure has been popularly deployed. However, due to the high cost of the construction and the maintenance of the infrastructure, researchers have focused their investigations on IEEE 802.16 wireless multi-hop networks with low cost and high scalability. With IEEE802.11e WLANs, which provide user-level QoS support for WLANs, the multi-hop networks of IEEE 802.16 using DiffServ...
To support the quality of service in wireless multimedia communications, wireless systems should work well in typical wireless environments characterized by the path loss of the signals, multipath fading, interference to adjacent channels, and random errors. A variety of researches in the application-layer have been proposed to adapt the video encoder to the link quality by compressing the data with...
Due to the high cost of construction and maintenance of infrastructure, engineers and researchers have focused their investigations on wireless mesh/relay networks with lower cost and high scalability. For current wireless mesh/relay networks, the end-to-end QoS guarantee is an important functionality because the demand for real-time multimedia communications has recently been increasing. Therefore,...
Various vehicular communication technologies have been proposed to provide reliable and seamless wireless communications. Short-range vehicular communications can be established using IEEE 802.11p, and the range of these protocols can be extended using mobile multi-hop ad hoc networks. To provide consistent quality of service (QoS) with maximum achievable transmission rate, many algorithms assume...
we apply the concept of the common spectrum coordination channel (CSCC) etiquette protocol to form a spectrum sharing protocol among access points in 802.11 networks. It efficiently allocates operating frequencies among access points. As a result, it reduces interference from wireless devices using the 802.11 MAC/PHY protocol. This is motivated by the lack of intelligent spectrum sharing among Wi-Fi...
A relay station (RS) in IEEE 802.16j mobile multi-hop relay (MMR) networks provides access links to far-off subscriber stations (SSs) and hidden subscriber stations. The RS also relays data from a base station and other RSs while maintaining backward compatibility with legacy subscriber stations in existing IEEE 802.16 networks. Much research is being performed to finalize the standard; however, how...
To meet the demand for broadband wireless communication, wireless systems should work well in typical wireless environments, characterized by the path loss of the signals, multipath fading, interference to adjacent channels, and random errors. IEEE 802.11 VVLANs use the unlicensed 2.4 GHz industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) band, which is vulnerable to noise generated by TVs, microwaves, and...
We propose a routing overlay system, MobCast, for simple and efficient routing to mobile hosts. Mobcast nodes advertise the same address space at each proxy location, and each mobile host is assigned a "universal" IP address from this address space, so packets sent to a mobile host's universal IP address automatically go to the nearest proxy on the overlay. The overlay then delivers the...
Use of private addresses in a mobile node's home network brings a challenge to mobile IP because a private address cannot uniquely identify the mobile node in the public network. Here we present an approach that a mobile node whose private home network is isolated from the public network by a realm specific IP (RSIP) gateway can communicate with a correspondent node when the mobile node visits the...
Computer networks have become increasingly ubiquitous. However, with the increase in networked applications, there has also been an increase in difficulty to manage and secure these networks. The proliferation of 802.11 wireless networks has heightened this problem by extending networks beyond physical boundaries. We propose the use of spectral analysis to identify the type of wireless network interface...
The massive amount of alarm data generated from intrusion detection systems is cumbersome for network system administrators to analyze. Often, important details are overlooked and it is difficult to get an overall picture of what is occurring in the network by manually traversing textual alarm logs. We have designed a novel visualization to address this problem by showing alarm activity within a network...
Networked systems still suffer from poor firewall configuration and monitoring. VisualFirewall seeks to aid in the configuration of firewalls and monitoring of networks by providing four simultaneous views that display varying levels of detail and time-scales as well as correctly visualizing firewall reactions to individual packets. The four implemented views: Real-Time Traffic, Visual Signature,...
