Book QoS Provisioning for IEEE 802 11 MAC Protocols

Download or read book QoS Provisioning for IEEE 802 11 MAC Protocols written by Ye Ge and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: In this dissertation, we investigate the issue of Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning for IEEE 802.11 MAC protocols. We propose a multiple class p-persistent version of the IEEE 802.11 protocol to support QoS differentiation in wireless local area networks (WLANs). A theoretical analysis model is proposed to predict the performance of this protocol. Through analytical modeling and simulation, we demonstrate that by assigning appropriate different transmission probabilities to wireless nodes of different classes, it is feasible to provide service differentiation and achieve the targeted throughput ratio among different classes, while at the same time, maximizing the total channel utilization. We also consider several implementation issues to practically implement the proposed work conforming to the IEEE 802.11 standard. In particular, we derive an approximate solution for the analytical model to reduce the computational complexity and estimate the performance deterioration due to such an approximate solution. We point out that as long as the average packet collision period is much longer than the basic slot duration in the backoff algorithm, (which is true in all the 802.11 family standards such as 802.11, 802.11b, 802.11a and 802.11g, as well as many potential new systems with higher transmission rates,) the loss in channel utilization is limited when the approximate solution is used to determine the protocol parameters. We associate the contention window based backoff scheme in the current 802.11 mac protocol to the proposed p-persistent MAC protocol through a simple relation between the contention window, $cw$, and the persistent probability, p. We also propose a simple yet effective mechanism to on-line estimate the number of active stations in a QoS basic service set (QBSS) so as to handle the network dynamics and optimize system parameters dynamically. By extending the analytical model, we study the impact of AIFS values in IEEE 802.11e on rate differentiation between different traffic classes, demonstrate that the per flow throughput ratio between different traffic classes is a function of both the persistent probability (or the contention window size) and AIFS values. Under the asymptotic condition, we derive a closed-form relation. Through analytical modeling and simulation, we evaluate the effect of tuning AIFS values to provide throughput differentiation. We recommend to only adjust the persistent probability p or equivalently the contention window size cw to achieve the desired rate differentiation, while keeping the AIFS values of all traffic classes to the same value (e.g., at DIFS). This keeps the dimension of design freedom small and the parameter fine-tuning process tractable.

Book Spectrum Sharing in Wireless Networks

Download or read book Spectrum Sharing in Wireless Networks written by John D. Matyjas and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-11-17 with total page 697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spectrum Sharing in Wireless Networks: Fairness, Efficiency, and Security provides a broad overview of wireless network spectrum sharing in seven distinct sections: The first section examines the big picture and basic principles, explaining the concepts of spectrum sharing, hardware/software function requirements for efficient sharing, and future trends of sharing strategies. The second section contains more than 10 chapters that discuss differing approaches to efficient spectrum sharing. The authors introduce a new coexistence and sharing scheme for multi-hop networks, describe the space-time sharing concept, introduce LTE-U, and examine sharing in broadcast and unicast environments. They then talk about different cooperation strategies to achieve mutual benefits for primary users (PU) and secondary users (SU), discuss protocols in a spectrum sharing context, and provide different game theory models between PUs and SUs. The third section explains how to model the interactions of PUs and SUs, using an efficient calculation method to determine spectrum availability. Additionally, this section explains how to use scheduling models to achieve efficient SU traffic delivery. The subject of the fourth section is MIMO-oriented design. It focuses on how directional antennas and MIMO antennas greatly enhance wireless network performance. The authors include a few chapters on capacity/rate calculations as well as beamforming issues under MIMO antennas. Power control is covered in the fifth section which also describes the interference-aware power allocation schemes among cognitive radio users and the power control schemes in cognitive radios. The sixth section provides a comprehensive look at security issues, including different types of spectrum sharing attacks and threats as well as corresponding countermeasure schemes. The seventh and final section covers issues pertaining to military applications and examines how the military task protects its data flows when sharing the spectrum with civilian applications.

Book Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks

Download or read book Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks written by Carlos de Morais Cordeiro and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2011 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive yet easy coverage of ad hoc and sensor networks and fills the gap of existing literature in this growing field. It emphasizes that there is a major interdependence among various layers of the network protocol stack. Contrary to wired or even one-hop cellular networks, the lack of a fixed infrastructure, the inherent mobility, the wireless channel, and the underlying routing mechanism by ad hoc and sensor networks introduce a number of technological challenges that are difficult to address within the boundaries of a single protocol layer. All existing textbooks on the subject often focus on a specific aspect of the technology, and fail to provide critical insights on cross-layer interdependencies. To fully understand these intriguing networks, one need to grasp specific solutions individually, and also the many interdependencies and cross-layer interactions.
