Transmission scheduling is a key design problem in wireless multi-hop networks. Many transmission scheduling algorithms have been proposed to maximize the spatial reuse and minimize the time division multiple access (TDMA) frame length. Most of the scheduling algorithms are topology-dependent. They are generally graph-based and depend on the exact network topology information. Thus, they cannot adapt...
In this paper, we describe a heterogeneous peer-to-peer network testbed, which is developed as part of a joint research project to investigate novel resource discovery and content distribution protocols in a heterogeneous wired/wireless environment. We describe the testbed requirements, the testbed architecture, the multi-functional wireless node, and the software architecture. We also describe some...
In this paper, we study the problem of computing the supported QoS from a source to a destination with multiple additive constraints. The problem has been shown to be NP-complete and many approximation algorithms have been developed. We propose a new approximation algorithm called multi-dimensional relaxation algorithm. We formally prove that our algorithm produces smaller approximation error than...
In this paper, we present a model to analyze the performance of wireless ad hoc networks with smart antennas, i.e. directional antennas with adjustable transmission power. Our results show that smart antennas can improve the network performance by mitigating the effects of interference. We illustrate our model with the NFP (Nearest with Forward Progress) transmission strategy. Our analytical and simulation...
Transmission scheduling is a key design problem in wireless multi-hop networks and many scheduling algorithms have been proposed to maximize the spatial reuse and minimize the time-division multiple- access (TDMA) frame length. Most of scheduling algorithms are graph-based, dependent on the exact network topology information and cannot adapt to the dynamic wireless environment. Some topology-independent...
