Although the special characteristics of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) help in reducing the cost of sensor nodes manufacturing and deployment, they added new challenges that directly affect the network functionality. This is increases the probability of network functionality deviation from its norm operation and affects its' collected data accuracy. Moreover, these challenges reduce the network lifetime...
Sensing coverage and network connectivity are two fundamental issues in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Due to resource constraints of sensor nodes, it may not be possible, or necessary, to provide full coverage and/or connectivity in WSNs. Under a certain coverage and connectivity requirement, the node deployment strategy becomes a challenging issue in randomly deployed networks. In this paper,...
This correspondence describes an efficient Bayesian framework for localization of moving terminals (MTs) in wideband wireless networks. In a previous paper, the authors have presented a grid-based technique, based on a hidden Markov model, that used the power delay profiles of the received signals to track the MT position. This grid-based Bayesian method has proved its efficacy in reducing localization...
In this paper, we study bandwidth management of a wireless/optical based access/metro network in support of voice and data services. For voice services, we use a finite state Markov Chain to estimate the blocking probability of voice circuits over an Adaptive modulation and coding wireless channel, as a function of the channel parameters. For data services, we evaluate a rate matching and a buffer...
