Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-layer design and optimization is a new technique which can be used to design and improve the performance in both wireless and wire line networks. The central idea of cross-layer design is to optimize the control and exchange of information over two or more layers to achieve significant performance improvements by exploiting the interactions between various protocol layers. In this thesis, a cross-layer design and optimization framework was proposed and the concept of using the optimization agent to provide the exchange and control of information between the protocol layers was also introduced. The approach for this thesis is to investigate the effects of the wireless channel and the performance of a small scale wireless sensor network (WSN) to develop insights that can be used in the design and development of the optimization agent in the proposed cross-layer framework. A tap delay line (TDL) model was developed and simulated in MATLAB to investigate the effects of the wireless channel impairments due to mobility and multipath fading. Performance measurements were also conducted to study the effects of interference and transmission range for a group of networked wireless sensors.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information flow in a telecommunication network is accomplished through the interaction of mechanisms at various design layers with the end goal of supporting the information exchange needs of the applications. In wireless networks in particular, the different layers interact in a nontrivial manner in order to support information transfer. In this text we will present abstract models that capture the cross-layer interaction from the physical to transport layer in wireless network architectures including cellular, ad-hoc and sensor networks as well as hybrid wireless-wireline. The model allows for arbitrary network topologies as well as traffic forwarding modes, including datagrams and virtual circuits. Furthermore the time varying nature of a wireless network, due either to fading channels or to changing connectivity due to mobility, is adequately captured in our model to allow for state dependent network control policies. Quantitative performance measures that capture the quality of service requirements in these systems depending on the supported applications are discussed, including throughput maximization, energy consumption minimization, rate utility function maximization as well as general performance functionals. Cross-layer control algorithms with optimal or suboptimal performance with respect to the above measures are presented and analyzed. A detailed exposition of the related analysis and design techniques is provided.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research addresses communication reliability in the highly constrained wireless sensor networks environment. We propose a cross-layer, reliable wireless sensor protocol design. The protocol benefits from the body of research in the two areas of wireless sensors reliability research and wireless sensors energy conservation research. The protocol introduces a new energy saving technique that considers reliability as a design parameter and constraint. The protocol also introduces a new back-off algorithm that dynamically adjusts to the data messages reliability needs. Other cross-layer techniques that the protocol introduces are dynamic MAC retry limit and dynamic transmission power setting that is also based on the messages reliability requirements. Cross layer design is defined as the interaction between the different stack layers with the goal of improving performance. It has been used in ad hoc wireless systems to improve throughput, latency, and quality of service (QoS). The improvements gained in performance come at a price. This includes decreased architecture modularity and designs may be hard to debug, maintain or upgrade. Cross-layer design is valuable for wireless sensor networks due to the severe resource constraints. The proposed protocol uses cross-layer design as a performance and energy optimization technique. Nevertheless, the protocol avoids introducing layer interdependencies by preserving the stack architecture and optimizes the overall system energy and reliability performance by information sharing. The information is embedded as flags in the data and control messages that are moving through the stack. Each layer reads these flags and adjusts its performance and handling of the message accordingly. The performance of the proposed protocol is evaluated using simulation modeling. The reference protocol used for evaluation is APTEEN. We developed simulation programs for the proposed protocol and for APTEEN protocol using the JiST/SWANS simulation tool. The performance evaluation results show that the proposed protocol achieves better energy performance than the reference protocol. Several scalability experiments show that the proposed protocol scales well and has better performance for large networks. Also, exhaustive bandwidth utilization experiments show that for heavily-utilized or congested networks, the proposed protocol has high reliability in delivering messages classified as important.

This book was released on 2013-01 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains Wireless Sensor Networks energy constraints of battery-powered sensor nodes necessitate energy-efficient communication. The major existing solutions are based on classical layered protocols approach, which leads to significant overhead. It is much more efficient to have a unified scheme which blends common protocol layer functionalities into a cross-layer module. In this paper, a efficient crosslayer protocol (XLP) is introduced, which achieves congestion control, data fragmentation, routing, and medium access control in a cross-layer fashion. Our approach combines medium access organization with routing. in a cross-layer simulation platform, the state-of-the- art layered and cross-layer protocols have been implemented along with XLP for performance evaluations. XLP significantly improves the communication performance and outperforms the traditional layered protocol architectures in terms of both network performance and implementation complexity.
Download or read book Adaptation and Cross Layer Design in Wireless Networks written by Mohamed Ibnkahla and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adaptive techniques play a key role in modern wireless communication systems. The concept of adaptation is emphasized in the Adaptation in Wireless Communications Series through a unified framework across all layers of the wireless protocol stack ranging from the physical layer to the application layer, and from cellular systems to next-generation wireless networks. Adaptation and Cross Layer Design in Wireless Networks is devoted to adaptation in the data link layer, network layer, and application layer. The book presents state-of-the-art adaptation techniques and methodologies, including cross-layer adaptation, joint signal processing, coding and networking, selfishness in mobile ad hoc networks, cooperative and opportunistic protocols, adaptation techniques for multimedia support, self –organizing routing, and tunable security services. It presents several new theoretical paradigms and analytical findings which are supported with various simulation and experimental results. Adaptation in wireless communications is needed in order to achieve high capacity and ubiquitous communications. The current trend in wireless communication systems is to make adaptation dependent upon the state of the relevant parameters in all layers of the system. Focusing on simplified cross layer design approaches, this volume describes advanced techniques such as adaptive resource management, adaptive modulation and coding, 4G communications, QoS, diversity combining, and energy and mobility aware MAC protocols. The first volume in the series, Adaptive Signal Processing in Wireless Communications (cat no.46012) covers adaptive signal processing at the physical layer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-layer design is an efficient approach to enhance energy efficiency and Quality of Service (QoS) in wireless ad hoc sensor networks. This dissertation will focus on the cross-layer issues and approaches. It will also discuss the latency-aware and energy efficiency tradeoffs and the packets transmission in the rear part of the dissertation. Firstly, we will analyze the cross-layer design for wireless sensor networks based on the virtual MIMO techniques. We will coordinate the physical layer, the MAC layer and the network layer for cross-layer evaluation. Performance analysis and simulation results show that throughput and packet loss ratio will have different performances compared with only considering the MIMO scheme in the physical layer as the increase of the number of transmitters. Secondly, we will discuss the bottom-up optimization for cross-layer design. We used the fuzzy logic system (FLS) to coordinate the physical layer, the data-link layer and the application layer for cross-layer design. Simulation results show that the cross-layer design can reduce the average delay, increase the throughput and extend the network lifetime. The network performance parameters could also keep stability after the cross-layer optimization. Thirdly, we extended the FLS application in cross-layer design from Type-1 to Type-2. We demonstrated that type-2 fuzzy membership function (MF), i.e., the Gaussian MFs with uncertain variance is most appropriate to model BER and MAC layer service time. We used the forecasted transmission delay to adjust the transmission power, and it showed that the interval type-2 FLS performed much better than a type-1 FLS, and FLSs performed better than back-prop NN in terms of energy consumption, average delay and throughput. Also, we obtained the performance bound based on the actual transmission delay. Finally, we applied a image as the real service in WSNs. We considered cross-layer design for image transmission in WSNs. We combined the application layer, the MAC layer and the physical layer together. According to analysis and simulation, there were tradeoffs between QoS and energy consumption for both high priority service and low priority service. Application level QoS was applied to evaluate the cross-layer design for WSNs. Two other works were discussed in this dissertation. One is the latency-aware and energy efficiency tradeoffs for wireless sensor networks. Latency and energy efficiency are two important parameters to evaluate the WSNs. The FLS is applied to the nodes selection. In contrast with the cases that only consider one descriptor, the FLS application can manage the delay/energy tradeoffs to meet the network performance requirements. Another work discussed is "Packets Transmission in wireless sensor networks: interference, energy and delay-aware approach". In the WSN, the interference will affect the packets transmission. We proposed FLS in the optimization of SIR threshold selection. Average delay and distance of a node to the source node are selected as antecedents for the FLS. The output of FLS provided adjusting factors for the SIR threshold. Simulation results showed the fuzzy optimization could achieve a better network efficiency, reduce the average delay and extend the network lifetime.

This book was released on 2006-06-14 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-layer design seeks to enhance the capacity of wireless networks significantly through the joint optimization of multiple layers in the network, primarily the physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers. Although there are advantages of such design in wireline networks as well, this approach is particularly advantageous for wireless networks due to the properties (such as mobility and interference) that strongly affect performance and design of higher layer protocols. This unique monograph is concerned with the issue of cross-layer design in wireless networks, and more particularly with the impact of node-level multiuser detection on such design. It provides an introduction to this vibrant and active research area insufficiently covered in existing literature, presenting some of the principal methods developed and results obtained to date. Accompanied by numerous illustrations, the text is an excellent reference for engineers, researchers and students working in communication networks.
Download or read book A Crosslayer Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent of wireless sensor networks with emphasis on the information being routed, rather than routing information has redefined networking from that of conventional wireless networked systems. Demanding the need for content based routing techniques and development of low cost network modules, built to operate in large numbers in a networked fashion with limited resources and capabilities. The unique characteristics of wireless sensor network's have questioned the applicability and effectiveness of conventional algorithms defined for wireless ad-hoc networks, leading to the design and development of protocols specific to wireless sensor network. Many network layer protocols have been proposed for wireless sensor networks, identifying and addressing factors influencing network layer design, this thesis defines a cross layer routing protocol (XLRP) for wireless sensor networks. The submitted work is suggestive of a network layer design with knowledge of application layer information and efficient utilization of physical layer capabilities onboard the sensor modules. Network layer decisions are made based on the quantity of information (size of the data) that needs to be routed and accordingly transmitter power levels are switched as an energy efficient routing strategy. The proposed routing protocol switches radio states based on the received signal strength (RSSI) acquiring only relevant information and piggybacks information in data packets for reduced controlled information exchange. The proposed algorithm has been implemented in Network Simulator (NS2) and the effectiveness of the protocol has been proved in comparison with diffusion paradigm.
