Increasing spectral efficiency has been a constant challenge in wireless communications. Many military and commercial applications require that wireless networks operate in dynamic environments and provide high data rates. Multiuser detection (MUD) has been demonstrated to increase spectral efficiency by increasing spectrum reuse. Most MUD research to date has focused on the physical layer (PHY) technology...
Without any pre-existing fixed network infrastructure with rapid configuration of wireless connections on-the-fly, network topology in MANETs keep on changing rapidly. Thus achieving data transmissions between wireless nodes in MANETs with improved QoS parameters become a challenging issue. To achieve this one has to concentrate on the routing protocol they choose. In our paper we proposed an algorithm...
IEEE 802.15.4 is the emerging next generation wireless standard designed for low-rate wireless personal area networks (LR-WPAN), which suit wireless sensor networks applications. It attempts to provide a low cost, low power and short range wireless networking. The QoS is more challenging in heterogeneous wireless sensors networks, where a diverse mixture of sensors for monitoring temperature, pressure,...
The statistical behavior of wireless medium access can generally be described by a function that relates the offered traffic to the collision probability and delay. Given a maximum tolerable collision probability and/or delay (quality-of-service constraints), one can derive the maximum admissible offered traffic for a given medium access strategy. In this paper, we describe both a centralized as well...
Flow convergence on particular nodes causes various problems such as degradation in QoS. We describe a new routing method for reducing the maximum number of relay flows on the node that relays maximum flows (called “the maximum number of relay flows”). A full search is required for calculating the optimal algorithm of this problem. Thus, we created an approximate algorithm to calculate a near optimal...
Recently, the necessity of applications where many users have to interact in a close manner over mobile Ad-Hoc networks gains high popularity. Multicast communication is essential in this type of applications to reduce the overhead of group communication. For group-oriented multimedia applications Quality of Service (QoS) provision is a basic requirement, which makes an efficient QoS multicast routing...
Tactical wireless mobile ad hoc networks rely upon distributed medium access control (MAC) protocols for coordination and assignment of channel resources among dispersed and mobile users. One such protocol is the distributed time division multiple access (TDMA) scheme where different users contend for time slots via a signaling mechanism. Several key performance criteria for such protocols are the...
Due to the dynamic nature of the network topology and restricted resources, quality of service (QoS) and stability routing in mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a challenging task. This paper presents fuzzy controllers based QoS routing algorithm (FQRA). The performance of this scheduler is studied using NS2 and evaluated in terms of quantitative metrics such as path success ratio, average end-to-end...
Due to its bandwidth efficiency, multicast makes a group-centric communication more viable in wireless ad hoc networks with limited radio resources. PIM-SM, a de facto standard multicast protocol known for its high scalability, is a good fit for a large-scale ad hoc network. However, it does not provide a robust multicast communication under RP outage and host mobility. In this paper, we propose a...
A multimetric QoS routing protocol (MQOLSR) is proposed in this paper, which providing different QoS for different applications flow in an ad hoc network. The protocol, which integrates QoS measurement and packet forwarding, expands the topology discovery and routing computing mechanism of the OLSR protocol. It can provide different routing and forwarding service according to different application...
Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a multi-hop temporary autonomous system of mobile nodes with wireless transmitters and receivers without the aid of pre-established network infrastructure. With the development of network and demand of users, QoS has become one of the focus issues. A new routing protocol is proposed in this paper, which can provide QoS guarantee. In the route discovery phase, it finds...
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have recently gained a lot of popularity due to their rapid deployment and instant communication capabilities. However, as a key technology for next-generation wireless networking, WMNs lack suitable routing metrics and protocol for new features. Currently, AODV is the routing protocol used in WMNs. This paper proposes an ants-in-mesh (AIM) routing protocol for wireless...
Due to the dynamically varying network topology ofad-hoc networks, the admitted quality of service suffers from frequent path breaks that require network re-establishment over new paths. Thus, rendering ad-hoc networks inappropriate for real-time interactive sessions, e.g., video or audio calls. TORA is a distributed, loop-free, multipath routing protocol for multi-hop networks which supports both...
