Industrial applications demand for ease of deployment, reliability and low-power in wireless networks, leading to standards like IEEE802.15.4, which include time synchronized channel hopping mechanisms. Yet, scheduling of transmissions on timeslots and channels falls outside the scope of current standards. Given the application requirements above, distributed (rather than centralized) scheduling has...
Multi-replicA decoding using corRelation baSed LocALisAtion (MARSALA) is a recent random access technique designed for satellite return links. It follows the multiple transmission and interference cancellation scheme of Contention Resolution Diversity Slotted Aloha (CRDSA). In addition, at the receiver side, MARSALA uses autocorrelation to localise replicas of a same packet so as to coherently combine...
With the large deployment of smart and heterogeneous devices, interest of researchers to define new protocols to meet Internet of Things (IoT) requirements is growing. A particular interest was accorded to define a robust MAC layer for wireless sensor networks, in order to reduce interference caused by other co-located networks and applications using the ISM band. This paper gives a comprehensive...
Ethernet is going to play a major role in automotive communications, thus representing a significant paradigm shift in automotive networking. Ethernet technology will allow for multiple in-vehicle systems (such as, multimedia/infotainment, camera-based advanced driver assistance and on-board diagnostics) to simultaneously access information over a single unshielded twisted pair cable. The leading...
A next generation Beyond 4G (B4G) radio access technology is expected to become available around 2020 in order to cope with the exponential increase of mobile data traffic. In this paper, research motivations and high level requirements for a B4G local area concept are discussed. Our suggestions on the design of the B4G system as well as on the choice of its key technology components are also presented.
Video signal processing algorithms are characterized by high computational complexity and high memory throughput. Since the multicore architectures can provide high computational capacity and high throughput, they suit the video processing applications very well. However, it is very difficult to deal with the increasing design complexity and cost of the multicore system. For video processing application,...
Three applications in wireless networks where model-free stochastic learning is applicable, are discussed. The learning based optimization problems are formulated and simulation results are presented. Some open issues are also discussed.
In this paper, we address the issue of transmission power control (TPC) in wireless ad hoc networks. Power control plays an important role in energy saving and network performance enhancement. However, the existing TPC schemes either face the problem of hidden and exposed terminal or have additional hardware requirements. We propose a novel distributed power control protocol, called Receiver Initiated...
Effects of improved channel estimation are studied for a proposed IEEE 802.11n OFDM MIMO system. Three channel estimation methods are considered: maximum likelihood (ML), time-domain truncation (TDT) and model-based (MB). TDT and MB are particularly useful when the channel delay spread is short. For an MMSE receiver, MB shows a 1-2.5 dB improvement over ML on the packet error rate performance for...
Correlative minimum shift keying (MSK), a second order polynomial modulation scheme known as tamed frequency modulation (TFM), is a constant envelope type of modulation with a perfect peak to average power ratio (PAPR), besides the property of low out of band power. We apply the linearized TFM to the single carrier transmission with frequency domain equalization (SC/FDE) concept. We then obtain a...
