Routing in Wireless Mesh Algorithm is concerned with finding “good” source destination paths and has been an active research area since many years. Much of the work is focused on the improvement of global resources, or on the performance of individual transfers. Either case, the routing problem can be casted as a multi-objective with objectives such as load-balancing, end-to-end delay, and path capacity...
This paper presents the results of frequency domain channel sounding of wireless in-car channels. Based on an extended measurement campaign different application-specific channels are characterized by channel gain, cumulative density functions and time dispersion parameters. The measurement sets are chosen for the freely disposable industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) frequency bands. Characteristic...
Cognitive radio (CR) emerges as a key technology to enhance spectrum efficiency and thus creates opportunistic transmissions over links. Supporting the routing function on top of numerous opportunistic links is a must to route packets in a general cognitive radio network (CRN) consisting of multi-radio systems. However, there lacks complete understanding of these highly dynamic available links and...
With the development of novel access technologies e.g. LTE, WiMAX etc., the mobile devices are able to establish services over multiple wireless connections with different momentary capabilities. Being imported from the fixed line communication, the current services deployed are lacking an efficient mechanism of adaptation to the momentary connectivity conditions, which deters the efficiency of the...
Seamless handoff support is an essential issue to ensure continuous communications in wireless mesh networks (WMNs). Due to the existence of multi-hop wireless links, traditional handoff schemes designed for single-hop wireless access networks can hardly guarantee the low handoff latency requirement in WMNs. Existing solutions on reducing the handoff delay in WMNs ignore one important factor for the...
We propose the dynamic BS-selection schemes for distributed wireless MIMO links, which aim at minimizing the average base-station (BS) usage while satisfying the specified statistical delay quality-of-service (QoS) constraint characterized by the delay-bound violation probability. In particular, the distributed transmission system consists of a number of location-independent BS's, a central server,...
Previous work demonstrated that adding a wireless link to a distance control between vehicles has effect on its performance. This paper presents an algorithm that minimizes the effect of the transmission delay and the packet losses of said wireless link. The extrapolation algorithm is implemented by a block added just after the link, so that it is transparent to the control system and it does not...
Performance evaluation of systems including, among others, components based on wireless links plays an important role both in the software and hardware engineering. In both cases the earlier evaluation of performance characteristics has been proved to be a key-factor for a successful design of new systems. However, most of the quantitative analysis methods suffers the problem of not being scalable...
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have emerged as a key technology for next generation wireless networks showing rapid progress and inspiring numerous applications. The persistence driving force in the development of WMNs comes from their envisioned advantages including extended coverage, robustness, self-configuration, easy maintenance, and low cost. However, to support real-time applications, WMNs must...
In this paper, we have presented an opportunistic multi-server scheduling scheme that distributes traffic on multiple wireless interfaces of a mobile router to improve service guarantees for competing flows during mobility. The proposed adaptive, scalable, multi-server (ASM) scheduling scheme extends guaranteed-rate(GR) service model to ensure bounded service delays for each packet of flows in accordance...
Current Internet protocols like TCP have been designed to work well on channels with low channel error rates. Wireless channels on the other hand exhibit high loss rates when compared to wired channels. Current TCP implementations usually attribute packet losses caused by channel errors as being actually caused by congestion. The result is an unnecessary reduction of the sending rate which leads to...
As one of the promising broadband wireless access technologies, IEEE 802.16 mesh networks need to guarantee the QoS requirement from users. But unfortunately, traditional congestion control strategies cannot work well in this kind of network, due to lack of precise congestion indication and the unique characteristics of shared wireless media. In this paper, a novel but rational congestion control...
Electrical and mechanical machinery, highly reflective industrial facilities and co-existing communication systems are the major sources of disturbances in wireless industrial applications. Characterization of industrial environments is important for the development of standards, to assess current and future deployment of wireless technologies, and to provide systems integrators and end user with...
With the ever-growing demand for multimedia applications over broadband wireless access networks, an efficient traffic scheduler is deemed crucial for the provision of quality-of-service (QoS). A large number of traffic scheduler schemes have been proposed, and those equipped with channel-aware capability appear to be most promising. These schedulers are capable of exploiting the dynamic channel condition...
Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) in IEEE 802.11 WLANs cannot guarantee both per-station and per-flow fairness among wireless stations. Several solutions to this problem have been proposed. However, per-flow fairness causes per-station unfairness and vice versa due to the fact that each wireless station may transmit different number of flows. In this paper, a novel method has been proposed to...
Fast handover management in mobile IPv6 environments has been a research subject for a long time. Exploiting the cooperative diversity paradigm in partner-based hierarchical MIPv6 (PHMIPv6) promises an acceleration of the handoff management operation by relaying some signaling over a selected partner node prior to the actual handover to the new access point. For this purpose, a suitable partner node,...
Real-time streaming over wireless networks is a challenging proposition due to the highly variable nature of wireless links and the resource-poor nature of mobile device. In such a context, transmission control schemes have to dynamically adapt both to the application requirements and to the channel conditions. In this paper, we propose an adaptive cross-layer quality-of-service (QoS) scheme for wireless...
We propose a game-theoretic framework for quality-of-service (QoS) aware resource competition among coexisting wireless links in mobile wireless networks. The senders of wireless links use the constant transmit power and then the wireless resources of interest is characterized by time-slot length. Multiple wireless links will use the limited wireless resources through a time-slot competition game...
By the use of radio communication in industrial environments the influence of multi-path propagation is a fundamental problem especially for safety-related applications. The prevailing locally variation of field strength is hardly predictable and continuously changing. A conception with a wireless redundant data transmission was developed as an approach to reduce the problematic influences. A lot...
Support for real-time traffic and multi-hop is a basic requirement in certain applications as, for example, cooperative robot team missions. Normally, point-to-point communication is sufficient to allow such a collaboration. However, there exist situations in which multicast and/or broadcast capabilities, even with real-time requirements, allow a better usage of the available bandwidth leaving more...
