The success of communication service providers (CSPs) relies on efficient operational strategies for managing their networks, including the planning, optimisation and maintenance, in order to meet the desired Quality of Service (QoS), Quality of Experience (QoE) and business goals and requirements. Such business goals and requirements include, amongst others, the reduction of Operational and Capital...
With the increase of the number of wireless sensing or metering devices, the collection of sensing data using wireless communication becomes an important part of many applications. Cognitive radio technology can be used to facilitate the deployment of a bandwidth efficient sensor system. In this paper, we propose a data collection and dissemination framework for cognitive radio sensor systems to fully...
Current power saving techniques have been focused on reducing the dynamic power consumption induced by switching activity in CMOS digital circuits. Among these techniques, we can cite the clock gating, dynamic voltage frequency scaling, adaptive voltage scaling, and multiple voltage thresholds. Recently, as transistor sizes get smaller, the leakage power consumption has become a non-negligible and...
Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNS) have emerged in the last years as a cost-efficient alternative to traditional wired access networks. In order to fully exploit the intrinsically scarce resources WMNS possess, the use of dynamic routing has been proposed. We argue instead in favour of separating routing from forwarding (i.e. à la MPLS) and implementing a dynamic load-balancing scheme that forwards incoming...
A 9-bit 100 MS/s flash-successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which is suitable for wireless communication systems, is presented. To reduce the active area and power consumption, front-end track-and-hold circuits in the flash ADCs are substituted by dynamic ones. A variable delay loop for enhancing dynamic performances is also included in the ADC. The prototype...
