It has long been known that adaptive beamforming has the potential to enhance the performance of wireless ad hoc networks significantly. However, due to the decentralized nature of such infrastructure-less networks, it is not straight forward to fully realize the potential performance gains of beamforming in a realistic manner. To this end we devise a fully distributed cross-layer concept, comprising...
Both research and practice have revealed that sensor devices running the 802.15.4 on their MAC layer may be competing for wireless communication on the 2.4 GHz ISM band with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other proprietary devices. Building upon a SunSPOT development platform, we evaluate the impact of channel hopping on interference mitigation in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and propose a channel hopping model that...
Wireless ad-hoc networking will be a fundamental component of emerging technologies such as multi-hop cellular networks, vehicular ad-hoc networks and wireless mesh networks, with most of these technologies based on evolved versions of the 802.11 standard. To achieve their expected benefits, and address their challenges, in terms of energy efficiency, reliability or reconfigurability, advanced cooperative...
In this paper we use an analytical model to study how two radio networks : a primary network and a secondary network can coexist within the same area. We use a very simple protocol, Aloha, for both radio networks, and tools borrowed from stochastic geometry to model the performance of our two networks. We show that the primary network and the secondary network can adapt their transmission parameters...
