Today, communications technology is one of the most essential roles for our life. People had used many ways of transmissions such as internet, mobile phone and so on. Moreover, VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is also a communications technology. In this paper, we focus on VoIP which transmits voice over packet switched networks such as LANs (Local Area Networks) or WANs (Wide Area Networks). Adding...
With its new features such as multi-homing and multi-streaming the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) has become a promising candidate as a general-purpose transport layer protocol. Multi-homing in an SCTP association can make concurrent multi-path transfer an appealing candidate to satisfy the ever increasing user demands for bandwidth. Multiple streams provide an aggregation mechanism to...
Multipath streaming protocols have recently attracted much attention because they provide an effective means to provide high-quality streaming over the Internet. However, many existing schemes require a long start-up delay and thus are not suitable for interactive applications such as video conferencing and tele-presence. In this paper, we focus on real-time live streaming applications with stringent...
New emerging technologies like Multimedia applications require timely delivery of information as compared to reliability. The most widely used protocols over transport layer are Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP). Both of these have some drawbacks while using in real time applications. TCP increases delay in transfer of data but achieving reliable transfer of data...
Bandwidth reservation in mobile wireless networks is a very challenging task due to the instability of radio channels, node mobility and lack of coordination between mobile nodes. Previously proposed reservation MAC protocols reserve a slot to each real-time source assuming that the source will use the reserved slot in each super-frame. Since different applications may have different bandwidth requirements,...
In the context of networks providing QoS guarantees, the end-to-end delay experienced by a packet is an important parameter. In this paper, we show that network coding can be used to decrease worst case end-to-end bounds when compared to a classical routing strategy. This result can be explained by the fact that network coding can cope with congestion better that classical routing due to its property...
This paper proposes a fast forward medium access control protocol (FFMAC) for quality-of-service (QoS) guarantee in multihop IEEE 802.11s wireless mesh networks with multiple channels. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed protocol is the first one which considers the multihop and multichannel issues simultaneously. It provides higher priority for real-time applications, while remaining the distributed...
This contribution addresses the case when live packet-switched video is used to enrich circuit-switched speech calls in mobile telephony. Circuit-switched and packet-switched transmissions generally operate on completely different transmission paths resulting in different QoS in terms of delay and loss rates. In this case, video and audio data recorded at the same time are not multiplexed together...
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...
