Opportunistic routing (OR) schemes, such as ExOR, have been shown to provide significant throughput gains over traditional best-path routing schemes for wireless networks. Though the performance of OR schemes depend on the bit-rate, they currently use a fixed rate for transmitting packets. While several schemes have been proposed for selecting bit-rate for unicast transmission to a single receiver,...
The underwater target localization problem is one important application for underwater acoustic sensor networks. This paper, based on "underwater acoustic transmission theory", solves the target localization problem. The proposed algorithm firstly studies the principle of underwater acoustics and applies it to set up the model of underwater signal energy transmission. According to the model,...
A new construction of a full-diversity full-rate space-time block code (FDFR-STBC) is presented in this paper. The design is for 2 transmit antennas and 2 time slots. The code outperforms the previous FDFR-STBC codes in [3], [4], [5], [6] for 1 receive antenna. We reduce the decoding complexity by exploiting the algebraic structure of the code and using the hybrid maximum-likelihood interference cancellation...
In this paper the performance of the ESPAR (electronically steerable passive array radiator) antenna in suppressing both the co-channel and inter-symbol interferences is compared with the conventional circular and linear arrays. For this purpose, the STAP (space-time adaptive processing) is implemented in both arrays with equal elements. Simulation results show that when the pattern of the ESPAR antenna...
In this paper, we propose a cross-layer optimization approach that exploits retransmission diversity in wireless CDMA communications. Conventionally, data packets that are not correctly detected are usually dropped. These dropped packets can be used to help data packet detection. By exploiting all the retransmitted packets, data packets can be correctly detected with higher probability. The proposed...
In this paper, we propose a cognitive radio-based multi-user resource allocation framework for mobile ad hoc networks using multi-carrier DS CDMA modulation over a frequency-selective fading channel. In particular, given pre-existing communications in the spectrum where the system is operating, in addition to potential narrow-band interference, a channel sensing and estimation mechanism is provided...
