The bandwidth in wireless networks is usually shared by a number of wireless nodes. The channel capacity depends on the number of accessing nodes, time, environmental conditions and location of nodes. Due to varying channel conditions, several issues are observed in the transmission of real time multimedia. The existing research on multimedia streaming can be classified into adaptation techniques...
Highly desirable types of networked multimedia applications should adapt to changes in the environmental conditions in which they operate, such as communication bandwidth, available memory, and battery lifetime, while providing the best possible quality of service (QoS). In this paper we present a software architecture that facilitates the development of adaptive networked multimedia applications...
In peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay networks, source peers holding multimedia objects can transmit the multimedia objects to receiver peers. In this paper, we discuss parallel types of multi-source streaming (MSS) models where a receiver peer can receive primitive objects of a multimedia object from multiple source peers which can support enough. A multimedia object is realized in a sequence of primitive...
The interaction between multicasting and real-time multimedia streams poses various new and interesting problems in research on communication protocols and architectures. For example, display systems of heterogeneous users in the same session may have different or even varying latency, display resolution, and/or processing capabilities. In this paper, we propose a receiver-oriented resource reservation...
Wireless network coding has the potential to enhance the capacity of wireless mesh networks (WMNs). However, most of the work considering the practical deployment of network coding in WMNs considers only IEEE 802.11 based medium access control (MAC) layers. The recent emergence of sophisticated MAC standards supporting WMNs (e.g. IEEE 802.16) make it necessary to view the deployment issues for network...
In this paper, the soft decision decoding method using CSI (channel state information) for DCM that is used for high data rate (320, 400, 480 Mbps) in MB-OFDM (multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system is investigated. OFDM based on UWB system has been proposed by the MBOA to provide very high data rate wireless communication. And CSI can be used in the soft-decision process to...
Todaypsilas access network is migrating towards broadband IP, fixed/mobile convergence and service convergence. Thus, the next generation access network (NGAN) requires a converged optical/wireless access network infrastructure, other than the existing architecture that connect to the cellular, broadband wireless, and optical access networks separately, which complicate the network and increase the...
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...
