Book Performance Evaluation of a Mac Protocol for Hybrid Wireless Networks

Download or read book Performance Evaluation of a Mac Protocol for Hybrid Wireless Networks written by Rajesh Verma and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12-22 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, due to basic features of MANETs and bandwidth constraint at MAC layer the throughput, delay and maintaining connectivity has been a major focus for research. Here, different issues of MAC protocols and TCP connectivity have been surveyed in detail. Further, channel utilization can be maximized by employing spatial reuse of the wireless channel at the MAC layer. A high throughput MAC protocol called Multiple-Beam Antenna Array MAC (MBAA-MAC) is proposed and analyzed for MANETs. Proposed MBAA-MAC protocol has been simulated to evaluate its performance in terms of throughput and delay under different network topology scenarios. Again, using this protocol, multiple concurrent transmissions are scheduled to improve the aggregate throughput of the network. The conventional MANETs provide communication in a limited geographical area. This was one of the major limitations of MANETs. A hybrid model is also proposed which is a combination of static & mobile nodes. The MBAA-MAC operates on static nodes. A grid topology consisting of chain of nodes has been simulated for different concurrent transmissions

Book MAC Layer and Routing Protocols for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks with Asymmetric Links and Performance Evaluation Studies

Download or read book MAC Layer and Routing Protocols for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks with Asymmetric Links and Performance Evaluation Studies written by Guoqiang Wang and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a heterogeneous mobile ad hoc network (MANET), assorted devices with different computation and communication capabilities co-exist. In this thesis, we consider the case when the nodes of a MANET have various degrees of mobility and range, and the communication links are asymmetric. Many routing protocols for ad hoc networks routinely assume that all communication links are symmetric, if node A can hear node B and node B can also hear node A. Most current MAC layer protocols are unable to exploit the asymmetric links present in a network, thus leading to an inefficient overall bandwidth utilization, or, in the worst case, to lack of connectivity. To exploit the asymmetric links, the protocols must deal with the asymmetry of the path from a source node to a destination node which affects either the delivery of the original packets, or the paths taken by acknowledgments, or both. Furthermore, the problem of hidden nodes requires a more careful analysis in the case of asymmetric links. MAC layer and routing protocols for ad hoc networks with asymmetric links require a rigorous performance analysis. Analytical models are usually unable to provide even approximate solutions to questions such as end-to-end delay, packet loss ratio, throughput, etc.

Book Protocol Design and Analysis for Cooperative Wireless Networks

Download or read book Protocol Design and Analysis for Cooperative Wireless Networks written by Wei Song and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-03 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the design and analysis of protocols for cooperative wireless networks, especially at the medium access control (MAC) layer and for crosslayer design between the MAC layer and the physical layer. It highlights two main points that are often neglected in other books: energy-efficiency and spatial random distribution of wireless devices. Effective methods in stochastic geometry for the design and analysis of wireless networks are also explored. After providing a comprehensive review of existing studies in the literature, the authors point out the challenges that are worth further investigation. Then, they introduce several novel solutions for cooperative wireless network protocols that reduce energy consumption and address spatial random distribution of wireless nodes. For each solution, the book offers a clear system model and problem formulation, details of the proposed cooperative schemes, comprehensive performance analysis, and extensive numerical and simulation results that validate the analysis and examine the performance under various conditions. The last section of this book reveals several potential directions for the research on cooperative wireless networks that deserve future exploration. Researchers, professionals, engineers, and consultants in wireless communication and mobile networks will find this book valuable. It is also helpful for technical staff in mobile network operations, wireless equipment manufacturers, wireless communication standardization bodies, and governmental regulation agencies.

Book Medium Access Control in Wireless Networks

Download or read book Medium Access Control in Wireless Networks written by Hongyi Wu and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless technologies and applications are becoming one of the fastest growing and most promising areas in recent years. To accommodate data transmission by multiple stations sharing the scarce wireless bandwidth, a medium access control (MAC) protocol plays a crucial role in scheduling packet transmission fairly and efficiently. The emerging wireless networks, such as ad-hoc networks, sensor networks or mesh networks, are mostly multi-hop based and in distributed manner, which brings a lot of problems and challenges in designing fine-tuned MAC protocols tailored for modern wireless network. In this book, the authors give complete and in-depth overviews to the classic medium access control algorithms and the related protocols, as well as their applications in various wireless data networks especially the most successful Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). The book consists of three major parts. Part I of this book, including Chapters 1-7, is emphasising on the fundamentals of medium access control algorithms and protocols. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the wireless networks, such as overview of wireless networks, problems and challenges of the wireless networks, and the classifications of MAC protocols as well as the performance metrics. Chapter 2 introduces important collision resolution algorithms applied in medium access controls, for example, the splitting algorithm and the backoff algorithm. Chapter 3 reviews the hybrid access control algorithms that combine both contention and allocation schemes. A series of important collision avoidance schemes are introduced in Chapters 4-7 respectively, with a specific design goal covered in each chapter. Chapter 4 focuses on the multi-channel MAC protocols for collision avoidance; Chapter 5 introduces the concepts of power control and power management in medium access control and how they can be applied in MAC protocol design; Chapter 6 presents how to provide Quality-of- Service (QoS) to multimedia wireless networks, in either centralised or distributed manner; and Chapter 7 explains how the smart antennas can be applied in the medium access control to provide high channel throughput and low packet collision.
