Wireless sensor networks offer a pragmatic solution for monitoring in a variety of scenarios. For efficient and practical data gathering, especially in large-scale systems deployed in inaccessible areas, unmanned vehicles are becoming a compelling solution. The added infrastructure flexibility comes at the cost of limited contact time between the mobile entity and the stationary devices. The channel...
While the wireless technologies have experienced remarkable improvement for decades, TCP protocol haven't been properly supported the mobility features of advanced wireless networks like 3GPP Long Term Evolution(LTE). Especially for handover, TCP performance is seriously degraded by spurious timeout since the core network is congested by data forwarding between serving eNodeB and target eNodeB. In...
We propose a primary path switching scheme to provide a seamless handover for dual-homed mobile terminals. This scheme is suggested as an enhancement to the mSCTP protocol. With our scheme, a mobile terminal performs primary path switching before it becomes unavailable due to its primary path drop. The improvement of the scheme comes from considering the temporal velocity of the mobile terminal with...
In the IEEE 802.15.4 medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless sensor networks, a sensor node needs to associate with a coordinator before it starts sending or receiving data. The sensor node will mostly choose the nearest coordinator to associate with. However, this method is not suitable for a constantly moving sensor node because it will end up switching coordinators too often due to short...
