Fuelled by the phenomenal growth of vehicular and air traffic, motorways and airports are considered to be among the most dynamic environments known. Providing adequate and reliable communication facilities to motorway and airport users is extremely challenging due to the high variability of the environments in which they operate. Moreover, maintaining quality of service (QoS) for all traffic classes...
The need for supporting real time and multimedia applications for users of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is becoming essential. Mobile ad hoc networks can provide multimedia users with mobility they demand, if efficient QoS multicast strategies were developed. The aim of this article is to define the building blocks of such an ad hoc QoS multicasting (AQM) protocol and propose a cross layer framework...
The Ad hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol is intended for use by mobile nodes in ad hoc networks. To provide quality of service, extensions can be added to the messages used during route discovery. These extensions specify the service requirements which must be met by nodes rebroadcasting a route request (RREQ) or returning a route reply (RREP) for a destination. In order to provide...
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...
