Voice over Internet Protocol is a growing technology that enables voice communication through the Internet. The transmission of audio data over packet switched networks faces lot of difficulties by a variety of network impairments. Such networks are not designed to support real time voice communication because of their variable characteristics. The conversational quality of a VoIP communication is...
A prioritized medium access control (PMAC) protocol is proposed for wireless sensor networks, based on a binary count down approach. PMAC effectively eliminates data collision and optimizes channel allocation. Moreover, as many networks nowadays compose traffic with several priorities, the simple yet effective design of PMAC offers strict service differentiation for prioritized packets. In this paper,...
High speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) was introduced to UMTS radio access segment to provide higher capacity for new packet switched services. As a result, packet switched sessions with multiple diverse traffic flows such as concurrent voice and data, or video and data being transmitted to the same user are a likely commonplace cellular packet data scenario. In HSDPA, radio access network (RAN)...
In this paper, we address the QoS issue of reliable real-time multimedia multicast services over packet-switched networks. Using a generalized architecture of delay limited erasure error recovery, we propose an efficient greedy algorithm for optimizing the parameters of the general architecture. Through the proposed greedy algorithm, the total needed redundant information can be minimized by choosing...
This paper explores the attributes, layering models and objective functions in cross layer designs for mobile ad hoc wireless networks by taking all the statistical characteristics and constraints from the physical (PHY) layer, media access control (MAC) layer and network (NET) layer into consideration. This paper reviews the entire network optimization across all the PHY/MAC/NET layers. At the PHY...
