For ad-hoc home networks without central coordinator, IEEE 802.11 systems merely support service differentiation. In many usage scenarios of a typical home network with applications requiring a strict quality of service (QoS), this MAC functionality is not sufficient. In order to counteract this problem, we developed in previous works a modified MAC scheme based on the IEEE 802.11 enhanced distributed...
TCP, the facto standard used in today's Internet, has been found to perform poorly in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). This is exacerbated by contention with increasing UDP-based high priority multimedia traffic and the class differentiation introduced in current QoS protocols, which results into TCP starvation and increased spurious timeouts. In this paper, we propose a cross-layer TCP enhancement...
During the last years, several wireless Internet service providers (WISPs) install base stations (BSs) to public areas in order to offer Internet feed or voice services to their subscribers. These BSs use the licensed-exempt spectrum, and limited regulations apply during their deployment. Thus, WISPs offering services in overlapping geographical areas need interference-free, access resolution mechanisms...
