This book was released on 2007 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The physical layer of future wireless networks will be based on novel radio technologies such as Ultra-Wideband (UWB) and Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO). One of the important capabilities of such technologies is the ability to capture a few packets simultaneously. This capability has the potential to improve the performance of the MAC layer. However, we show that in networks with spatially distributed nodes, reusing MAC protocols originally designed for narrow-band systems (e.g., CSMA/CA) is inefficient. It is well known that when networks with spatially distributed nodes operate with such MAC protocols, the channel may be captured by nodes that are near the destination. We show that when the physical layer enables multi-packet reception, the negative implications of reusing the legacy protocols include not only such unfairness but also a significant throughput reduction. We present a number of simple alternative backoff mechanisms that attempt to overcome the throughput reduction phenomenon. We evaluate the performance of these mechanisms via exact analysis, approximations, and simulation, thereby demonstrating that they usually outperform the legacy backoff mechanisms. We then discuss the implications of the results on developing realistic MAC protocols for networks with a multi-packet reception capability and in particular for UWB networks.

Download or read book Design Modeling and Analysis for MAC Protocols in Ultra wideband Networks written by Kuang-Hao Liu and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultra-wideband (UWB) is an appealing transmission technology for short-range, bandwidth demanded wireless communications. With the data rate of several hundred megabits per second, UWB demonstrates great potential in supporting multimedia streams such as high-definition television (HDTV), voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), and console gaming in office or home networks, known as the wireless personal area network (WPAN). While vast research effort has been made on the physical layer issues of UWB, the corresponding medium access control (MAC) protocols that exploit UWB technology have not been well developed. Given an extremely wide bandwidth of UWB, a fundamental problem on how to manage multiple users to efficiently utilize the bandwidth is a MAC design issue. Without explicitly considering the physical properties of UWB, existing MAC protocols are not optimized for UWB-based networks. In addition, the limited processing capability of UWB devices poses challenges to the design of low-complexity MAC protocols. In this thesis, we comprehensively investigate the MAC protocols for UWB networks. The objective is to link the physical characteristics of UWB with the MAC protocols to fully exploit its advantage.
Download or read book Composite Metric Based Multi channel MAC Protocol for Ad hoc Network written by Yogita Mehta and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Author's abstract] Recent technology advances have opened a new spectrum of communication networks called ad hoc networks. In an ad hoc network, the Media Access Control (MAC) protocol of IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), designed to share a single channel between nodes. This thesis presents a protocol that facilitates use of more than one channel and analytical analysis for the throughput of the network. One of the functions of a MAC layer is to scan all channels. A composite metric (CM) has been proposed for each available channel. The CM depends on the signal to noise ratio, the battery power remaining and the mobility of each node with respect to other nodes in the network. The channels with three higher CMs are selected at each node and are used to build a Preferred Channel List (PCL). During Announcement Traffic Indication Message (ATIM), the PCL is sent by the node intended to communicate with another node. If the PCL of the receiver node has non interfering channels with the PCL of the sender node, it responds with an ATIM ACK with its PCL. If the PCL of both nodes have appropriate channels, then the sender node replies with an ATIM RES indicating that at the end of the ATIM window, the RTS/CTS/DATA/ACK handshake will begin. A mathematical model based on Markov chain process is designed to derive an expression for saturation throughput and evaluate the performance of Composite Metric (CM) based Multi channel MAC (MMAC) against IEEE 802.11 MAC Distributed Co ordination Function (DCF) and Dynamic Channel Allocation (DCA) protocol. IEEE 802.11 MAC, DCA and CM based MMAC protocol works better for large data packets than for small data packets. Simulation results show enhancement of 35 to 95 percent in the overall throughput of the network when the proposed CM based MMAC protocol used over IEEE 802.11 MAC and DCA protocols.

Download or read book A Scalable Model for Channel Access Protocols in Multihop Ad Hoc Networks written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new modeling framework is introduced for the analytical study of medium access control (MAC) protocols operating in multihop ad hoc networks. The model takes into account the effect of physical-layer parameters on the success of transmissions, the MAC protocol on the likelihood that nodes can access the channel, and the connectivity of nodes in the network. A key feature of the model is that nodes can be modeled individually, i.e., it allows a per-node setup of many layer-specific parameters. Moreover, no spatial probability distribution or a particular arrangement of nodes is assumed; the model allows the computation of individual (per-node) performance metrics for any given network topology and radio channel model. To show the applicability of the modeling framework, we model multihop ad hoc networks using the IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function and validate the results from the model with discrete- event simulations in Qualnet. The results show that our model predicts results that are very close to those attained by simulations, and requires seconds to complete compared to several hours of simulation time.

Download or read book Age of Information written by Yin Sun and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2019-12-12 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information usually has the highest value when it is fresh. For example, real-time knowledge about the location, orientation, and speed of motor vehicles is imperative in autonomous driving, and the access to timely information about stock prices and interest rate movements is essential for developing trading strategies on the stock market. The Age of Information (AoI) concept, together with its recent extensions, provides a means of quantifying the freshness of information and an opportunity to improve the performance of real-time systems and networks. Recent research advances on AoI suggest that many well-known design principles of traditional data networks (for, e.g., providing high throughput and low delay) need to be re-examined for enhancing information freshness in rapidly emerging real-time applications. This book provides a suite of analytical tools and insightful results on the generation of information-update packets at the source nodes and the design of network protocols forwarding the packets to their destinations. The book also points out interesting connections between AoI concept and information theory, signal processing, and control theory, which are worthy of future investigation.
Download or read book Modern Random Access Protocols written by Matteo Berioli and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Random access represents possibly the simplest and yet one of the best known approaches for sharing a channel among several users. Since their introduction in the 1970s, random access schemes have been thoroughly studied and small variations of the pioneering Aloha protocol have since then become a key component of many communications standards, ranging from satellite networks to ad hoc and cellular scenarios. A fundamental step forward for this old paradigm has been witnessed in the past few years, with the development of new solutions, mainly based on the principles of successive interference cancellation, which made it possible to embrace constructively collisions among packets rather enduring them as a waste of resources. These new lines of research have rendered the performance of modern random access protocols competitive to that of their coordinated counterparts, paving the road for a multitude of new applications. This monograph explores the main ideas and design principles that are behind some of such novel schemes, and aims at offering to the reader an introduction to the analytical tools that can be used to model their performance. After reviewing some relevant results for the random access channel, the volume focuses on slotted solutions that combine the approach of diversity Aloha with successive interference cancellation, and discusses their optimisation based on an analogy with the theory of codes on graphs. The potential of modern random access is then further explored considering two families of schemes: the former based on physical layer network coding to resolve collisions among users, and the latter leaning on the concept of receiver diversity. Finally, the opportunities and the challenges encountered by random access solutions recently devised to operate in asynchronous, i.e., unslotted, scenarios are reviewed and discussed.
