Recent studies have preliminarily investigated and proven the feasibility and effectiveness of applying Content Centric Networking (CCN) principles to Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) for content-oriented wireless communications in infrastructure-less mobile environments. However, existing designs may not achieve the full potential of CCN-MANETs. In this paper, we develop a content-centric communication...
During a disaster incident, existing network infrastructures might either be damaged or overloaded. However, disaster operations require real-time and low latency data communication, especially live video and audio streaming, as well as in integration with social networks. Thus, deployed tactical networks face several challenges to connect intervening teams. To date, there is still a lack of routing...
The high densities of network nodes has made spatial reuse an essential characteristic of modern wireless networks. In this paper, we evaluate the maximum throughput of Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) for Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) when spatial reuse is taken into account. We begin our study by extending a simple stochastic model in order to fit a VANET pattern and to obtain the spatial...
Currently we can witness how unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have suddenly become an active research area, and are enjoying widespread acceptance, while also starting to play a relevant role in many areas of our society. Nonetheless, despite significant progress was made in recent years, many more improvements are expected in a near future. In this paper we address the issue of inter-UAV communications...
To mitigate performance anomalies due to different transmission rates and improve throughput performance in ad-hoc networks, we propose a method called user cooperative mobility in which a node, i.e., a user of an ad-hoc network, moves (changes its geometrical position) for communication. Unlike previous research regarding user cooperative mobility, it is not easy to decide to where the user should...
A wireless ad hoc network (WANET) is an effective approach to disseminating digital content without the need for infrastructure networks. It is not only useful in the absence of commodity connections such as cellular networks, but also useful for avoiding overloading those connections in crowded scenarios, an example of which is delivering movie clips throughout spectators in a stadium. However, experiments...
