Designing power aware protocols becomes a pre-requisite to conserve energy and extend network life time. In fact, many target applications may require such features when being deployed for long periods in hostile environments, such as rescue or military operations. To assure power saving while preserving network capacity, relaying on a virtual backbone seems a promising approach. Through keeping a...
We propose QUEST (QUality ESTimation), a new method that accurately estimates IEEE 802.11 wireless link quality with no in-band signaling overhead. Existing link quality estimation methods either are based on hello exchanges by fixing or varying transmission rates or rely on the history (e.g., delivery ratio) of previously sent data packets in a per-rate/-neighbor manner. QUEST on the other hand,...
In this paper, we introduce and evaluate ScaleMesh, a scalable miniaturized dual-radio wireless mesh testbed based on IEEE 802.11b/g technology- ScaleMesh can emulate large-scale mesh networks within a miniaturized experimentation area by adaptively shrinking the transmission range of mesh nodes by means of variable signal attenuators. To this end, we derive a theoretical formula for approximating...
In this paper, we introduce a pricing model that ensures efficient resource allocation that provides guaranteed quality of service while maximizing profit in multiservice networks. Specifically, a dynamic allocation policy is examined that relies on online measurements while each service class operates under a probabilistic bound delay constraint. We present a rigorous analysis of the properties of...
