In this paper, an energy efficient adaptive modulation scheme is proposed for a wireless cognitive radio ad hoc network, where each node is equipped with cognitive radio and the network is an OFDMA system operating on time slots. In each slot, the users with new traffic demand will sense the spectrum and locate the available subcarrier set. Then they choose subcarriers with favorable channel condition...
This paper focuses on WiMAX since this wireless technology allows broadband communications. In particular, we provide here a preliminary study on MAC layer performance as well as a sensitivity study to its parameters. A simulation approach has been adopted, based on the ns-2 environment to investigate the impact that real-time traffic has on non-real-time traffic and vice versa. The study presented...
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing has become a key element of todays wireless communication systems. However, its sensitivity to oscillator phase noise is responsible for common phase error (CPE) and inter-carrier interference (ICI) which greatly degrades the overall system performance. In this contribution, we address the problem of reducing the effects of phase noise in an OFDM system operating...
In this paper, we study bandwidth management of a wireless/optical based access/metro network in support of voice and data services. For voice services, we use a finite state Markov Chain to estimate the blocking probability of voice circuits over an Adaptive modulation and coding wireless channel, as a function of the channel parameters. For data services, we evaluate a rate matching and a buffer...
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...
Ultra-wideband (UWB) systems possess several distinct features such as very high data rate, large multipath or frequency diversity and improved ranging precision while requiring low-power low-complexity transceivers. Among the different modulation schemes, differential PSK is an attractive option because it does not require channel estimation, and hence reduces implementation complexity. This paper...
