Recent years have seen an increasing need of wireless networks in a mobile environment serving for more complex tasks and applications. Mobility becomes an indispensable factor of the system design and has been widely recognized as a general cause of packet loss. Though many works have been done on mobility study, to the best of our knowledge, they are mainly based on simulations or analytical studies...
The TCP acknowledgement problem in the multi-hop wireless network is analyzed in the paper, and a TCP acknowledgement mechanism by the combination of the sender and the receiver is proposed. The mechanism stipulates that the receiver decides whether to respond acknowledgement according to the group frequency received, also conduct the fast acknowledgement according to the demand of the sender. Compared...
Opportunistic routing (OR) schemes, such as ExOR, have been shown to provide significant throughput gains over traditional best-path routing schemes for wireless networks. Though the performance of OR schemes depend on the bit-rate, they currently use a fixed rate for transmitting packets. While several schemes have been proposed for selecting bit-rate for unicast transmission to a single receiver,...
We consider the problem of several users transmitting packets to a base station, and study an optimal scheduling formulation involving three communication layers, namely, the medium access control, link, and physical layers. We assume Markov models for the packet arrival processes and the channel gain processes. Perfect channel state information is assumed to be available at the transmitter and the...
