Book Protocol Design and Performance Evaluation for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

Download or read book Protocol Design and Performance Evaluation for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks written by Fei Tong and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benefiting from the constant and significant advancement of wireless communication technologies and networking protocols, Wireless Ad hoc NETwork (WANET) has played a more and more important role in modern communication networks without relying much on existing infrastructures. The past decades have seen numerous applications adopting ad hoc networks for service provisioning. For example, Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) can be widely deployed for environment monitoring and object tracking by utilizing low-cost, low-power and multi-function sensor nodes. To realize such applications, the design and evaluation of communication protocols are of significant importance. Meanwhile, the network performance analysis based on mathematical models is also in great need of development and improvement.This dissertation investigates the above topics from three important and fundamental aspects, including data collection protocol design, protocol modeling and analysis, and physical interference modeling and analysis. The contributions of this dissertation are four-fold.First, this dissertation investigates the synchronization issue in the duty-cycled, pipelined-scheduling data collection of a WSN, based on which a pipelined data collection protocol, called PDC, is proposed. PDC takes into account both the pipelined data collection and the underlying schedule synchronization over duty-cycled radios practically and comprehensively. It integrates all its components in a natural and seamless way to simplify the protocol implementation and to achieve a high energy efficiency and low packet delivery latency. Based on PDC, an Adaptive Data Collection (ADC) protocol is further proposed to achieve dynamic duty-cycling and free addressing, which can improve network heterogeneity, load adaptivity, and energy efficiency. Both PDC and ADC have been implemented in a pioneer open-source operating system for the Internet of Things, and evaluated through a testbed built based on two hardware platforms, as well as through emulations.Second, Linear Sensor Network (LSN) has attracted increasing attention due to the vast requirements on the monitoring and surveillance of a structure or area with a linear topology. Being aware that, for LSN, there is few work on the network modeling and analysis based on a duty-cycled MAC protocol, this dissertation proposes a framework for modeling and analyzing a class of duty-cycled, multi-hop data collection protocols for LSNs. With the model, the dissertation thoroughly investigates the PDC performance in an LSN, considering both saturated and unsaturated scenarios, with and without retransmission. Extensive OPNET simulations have been carried out to validate the accuracy of the model.Third, in the design and modeling of PDC above, the transmission and interference ranges are defined for successful communications between a pair of nodes. It does not consider the cumulative interference from the transmitters which are out of the contention range of a receiver. Since most performance metrics in wireless networks, such as outage probability, link capacity, etc., are nonlinear functions of the distances among communicating, relaying, and interfering nodes, a physical interference model based on distance is definitely needed in quantifying these metrics. Such quantifications eventually involve the Nodal Distance Distribution (NDD) intrinsically depending on network coverage and nodal spatial distribution. By extending a tool in integral geometry and using decomposition and recursion, this dissertation proposes a systematic and algorithmic approach to obtaining the NDD between two nodes which are uniformly distributed at random in an arbitrarily-shaped network.Fourth, with the proposed approach to NDDs, the dissertation presents a physical interference model framework to analyze the cumulative interference and link outage probability for an LSN running the PDC protocol. The framework is further applied to analyze 2D networks, i.e., ad hoc Device-to-Device (D2D) communications underlaying cellular networks, where the cumulative interference and link outage probabilities for both cellular and D2D communications are thoroughly investigated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SpringerBrief presents the design and performance evaluation of communication protocols based on dissimilarity metrics for wireless multihop networks. Dissimilarity metrics are used to infer the network topology based solely on local information to efficiently disseminate packets throughout the network, reducing both redundancy and congestion which is covered in this brief. The performance evaluation of the proposed communication protocols has been conducted by both meticulous simulation and real experimentation in a wireless multi-hop testbed. The obtained results in this brief corroborate the hypothesis regarding the validity of dissimilarity metrics, which can be used to design efficient communication protocols. This SpringerBrief is a good starting point for advanced-level students studying computer science and electrical engineering, as well as researchers and professionals working in this field.

Book Experimental Performance Evaluation of ATP  Ad hoc Transport Protocol  in a Wireless Mesh Network

Download or read book Experimental Performance Evaluation of ATP Ad hoc Transport Protocol in a Wireless Mesh Network written by Xingang Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well known that TCP performs poorly in wireless mesh networks. There has been intensive research in this area, but most work uses simulation as the only evaluation method; however, it is not clear whether the performance gains seen with simulation will translate into benefits on real networks. To explore this issue, we have implemented ATP (Ad-hoc Transport Protocol), a transport protocol designed specifically for wireless ad hoc networks. We have chosen ATP because it uses a radically different design from TCP and because reported results claim significant improvement over TCP. We show how ATP must be modified in order to be implemented in existing open-source wireless drivers, and we perform a comprehensive performance evaluation on mesh testbeds under different operating conditions. Our results show that the performance of ATP is highly sensitive to protocol parameters, especially the epoch timeout value. To improve its performance we design an adaptive version that utilizes a self-adjustable feedback mechanism instead of a fixed parameter. A comprehensive measurement study demonstrates the advantages of our adaptive ATP under various operating conditions. For networks with high bit-rate, low quality links, our adaptive version of ATP demonstrates an average of more than 50% gain in goodput over the default ATP for a single flow case. With respect to fairness, the adaptive ATP generally outperforms the default ATP by an order of magnitude in most results.

Book New Methodologies for Performance Modeling of Routing Protocols in Wireless Networks

Download or read book New Methodologies for Performance Modeling of Routing Protocols in Wireless Networks written by Andres Medina and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mobile wireless ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are being designed to be a key element in future battlefield communications, as well as a supplement to cellular networks. As a consequence of rapid changes in the topology of the network, routing packets in MANETs is a challenging task that has attracted considerable attention. However a comprehensive performance evaluation of routing protocols remains an open problem. This dissertation proposes a novel methodology for the performance evaluation of routing protocols for MANETs. The method is based on a "Divide and Conquer" approach and it provides a systematic and disciplined way to evaluate the performance of routing protocols. The full routing system is decomposed into components (subsystems). Performance models are developed for each component. Then, the performance model of the full system is the interconnection of the performance models of the components. The component based approach makes practical the performance evaluation of routing protocols, by allowing researchers to reuse a subset of the previous developed models to evaluate the performance of new ideas.
