Clock synchronization is one of the enabling technologies for real-time networking. This paper is motivated by the need for WLAN support of real-time factory automation networks. These networks need synchronized clocks for the typical time-slotted arbitration schemes. As this type of service is not yet available wireless LANs, this work investigates possibilities for synchronizing clocks, based on...
Wireless personal area networks (WPAN) are wireless sensor networks (WSN) designed for allowing a low-cost, low-power and short-range wireless communication. The IEEE 802.15.4 is the WPAN standard which satisfies these features and facilitates diverse self-configuring operation processes for adapting to different environments and applications. One of these processes is responsible for resolving the...
Video signal processing algorithms are characterized by high computational complexity and high memory throughput. Since the multicore architectures can provide high computational capacity and high throughput, they suit the video processing applications very well. However, it is very difficult to deal with the increasing design complexity and cost of the multicore system. For video processing application,...
In this paper, we address the issue of transmission power control (TPC) in wireless ad hoc networks. Power control plays an important role in energy saving and network performance enhancement. However, the existing TPC schemes either face the problem of hidden and exposed terminal or have additional hardware requirements. We propose a novel distributed power control protocol, called Receiver Initiated...
Video-streaming can now be offered on third-generation (3G) mobile networks. Most research efforts have focused on video download. This paper presents a detailed study of challenges faced for successfully deploying applications requiring life video upload. Both subjective and objective qualities as well as the effects of mobility are analyzed on real 3G networks. Consequently, video profiles are identified...
