In this paper, we introduce a delay-sensitive service that involves transmitting large amounts of location-based data to nodes at multiple locations. Given a limited amount of access points (APs) and an abundance of service requests that result from the nodes moving around, a typical content delivery service would inevitably introduce considerable delay. To solve this problem, we analyze the movement...
In recent years, vehicular networks have been widely studied because these networks become an important part of wireless metropolitan networks. This type of wireless network is different from other conventional wireless mobile networks since the mobile nodes in the networks usually have high speed, sufficient power and dynamic topology. In vehicular networks, vehicles can connect with access points,...
In this paper, we introduce a novel queue management technique for the buffer space at the base station of infrastructure 802.11 networks that considers mobile user's receiving characteristics. The maximum amount of the base station buffer that can be used by a given flow is updated proportionally to RTT, measured at the mobile nodes and sent to the base station my the mean of link layer acknowledgements...
Among the characteristics of the future wireless networks is the desire to support a wide range of wireless users and a diverse set of services from many different types of networks. A unifying technology for diverse wireless networking is mobile IP, a protocol established by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) that allows mobile nodes (MN) to change their point of attachment to the Internet...
Key management is an important service for providing secure communications when the network size is large or the topology is undergoing frequent changes. In most existing key management schemes, a centralized key certification authority is used; however, it is not suitable for wireless environments due to the networkspsila scalability and the insufficient computation ability of mobile nodes. In this...
The development trend of mobile communication networks is toward an all-IP architecture. This architecture aims to interconnect the various wireless communication technologies through a common IP core. However, many challenges throughout the development are still not solved. One of these challenges is how to support a fast handover with suitable QoS. In this paper we propose a new architecture for...
Location is part of the context of an ensemble of mobile nodes in a wireless mesh network. In this paper we present a concept and an architecture for a location aware Digital Rights Management system. This system uses signal strengths in a mobile ad-hoc or mesh network to determine the position of each node and to authenticate these position information. It enables devices to control access depending...
