The paper focuses on using Network Coding (NC) with TCP for multi-hop wireless networks to provide fault-tolerant and timely delivery of streaming data. The paper shows that there is an inherent latency in video playback when TCP with random linear NC is employed. With the objective of reducing latency and jitter at the receiver, the paper proposes a Variable Bucket size based Network Coding (VBNC)...
This paper presents a performance model of a wireless network with one-antenna transmitter scheduling information towards a set of terminals in a time-division fashion. Each terminal is enabled with a multiple-antenna maximum ratio combining (MRC) receiver. The objective of this model is to evaluate the performance of adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) in Rayleigh fading channels under two assumptions:...
Device-to-device (D2D) multicast communication is a useful way to improve the communication efficiency of user equipments which are located close to each other. In this paper, the frequency resource sharing problem of D2D multicast communications underlying single frequency network (SFN) system is investigated. Firstly, to avoid the interference between D2D and cellular communication and without consuming...
Overlay multicast is an efficient communication scheme for multipoint communication applications. This paper focuses on the transmission isolation and unbalanced load allocation problems of multi-rate multimedia transmission over embedded overlay topology where multicast receivers in the same session request service at different rates commensurate with their requirements. We propose a novel data distribution...
Polarization-enabled Spectrum Sharing (PSS) that exploits the spectrum opportunities in polarization domain is deployed to balance between avoiding interference at the incumbent receiver and optimizing the throughput of secondary user. However, when it comes to wideband environments, PSS is impaired by the frequency-dependent Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) effect, thus the spectrum efficiency...
Femtocells were proposed as a solution to improve the performance in dense networks. They complement the macro base stations (eNB) with a dense set of low power micro base stations (HeNB). However, they also bring increased interference problems and consequently more collisions and lost packets. This paper considers the use of femtocells running the Single Carrier with Frequency Domain Equalization...
In this paper, we consider a molecular diffusion based communications link that conveys information on the macro-scale (several metres). The motivation is to apply molecular-based communications to challenging electromagnetic environments. We first derive a novel capture probability expression of a finite sized receiver. The paper then introduces the concept of time-aggregated molecular noise at the...
