Network bandwidth and server capacity are gradually becoming overloaded due to high demand and rapid evolution of high quality multimedia services over the Internet. Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is among the multimedia services that demand more of network and server resources, especially with the emergence of Mobile IPTV. It is imperative for service providers to maintain good quality management...
In order to provide real-time communication in wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs), the QoS-supported routing algorithm is addressed in the paper. Our basic idea is firstly to guarantee a delay upper bound to reality real-time communication, and secondly use the least energy-consumption path to minimize energy consumption for the whole network, which can prolong the lifetime of WMSNs. At the...
As a new communication mode, anycast brings along challenges and opportunities for domestic and international researchers. The quality of anycast service mainly relies on the selection of QoS routing. Aiming at the proposed anycast routing algorithm, this paper introduces its disadvantages on the experimental analyses and its advantages of simulation based on NS2. It then focuses on a proposed anycast...
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...
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...
A principal factor in sensor network design is energy efficiency. In this work, we propose to extend the lifetime of sensor networks using appropriate choice of sensor node distribution. The key idea of our scheme is to deploy more nodes in areas of extensive energy usage. Using this scheme of sensor node distribution, we use probabilistic angular routing to route data packets from the sensor nodes...
This paper proposes a fast forward medium access control protocol (FFMAC) for quality-of-service (QoS) guarantee in multihop IEEE 802.11s wireless mesh networks with multiple channels. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed protocol is the first one which considers the multihop and multichannel issues simultaneously. It provides higher priority for real-time applications, while remaining the distributed...
Many real-time communication protocols have been studied to guarantee the communication requirements of distributed real-time systems. But, current techniques lack all or most of these requirements specially bounded message delivery time. In this paper we have proposed a Mac layer protocol called RDM+ with concepts similar to Round Data Mailer multi layer protocol. Our simulation results show that...
