This paper presents a cooperation-based retransmission mechanism for IEEE 802.11 networks called Forwarding By Retransmission (FBR). This mechanism aims at reducing the mean number of retransmissions in an infrastructure network, or it can be used to forward frames in a small ad hoc network. FBR enables any node that received a frame to participate in the retransmission process, as long as it has...
We investigate different schemes for data dissemination in multi-hop ad-hoc networks using network coding. We study the performance of these schemes in terms of the completion time when a set of data packets must be disseminated from a single source to all nodes in a multi-hop network, i.e. a network where at least one node is several hops away from the source. Therefore some network nodes must relay...
Due to limitations on transmission power of wireless devices, areas with sparse nodes are decisive to some extreme properties of network topology. In this paper, we assume wireless ad hoc and sensor networks are represented by uniform point processes or Poisson point processes. Asymptotic analyses based on minimum scan statistics are given for some crucial network properties, including coverage of...
Coding advantage refers to the potential for network coding to improve end-to-end throughput or reduce routing cost. How large can the coding advantage be? We investigate this fundamental question in the classic undirected network model. So far, all known networks where such potential exists are based on a special class of topologies known as combinatorial networks. We try to prove a rather small...
