Download or read book Medium Access Control in Ad Hoc Networks with Omni directional and Directional Antennas written by Yu Wang and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ad hoc network is a dynamic network formed on demand by a group of nodes without the aid of any pre-existing network infrastructure. An efficient and effective medium access control (MAC) protocol which regulates nodes access to the shared channel(s) is essential in an ad hoc network. Our work is focused on the throughput and fairness properties of existing omni-directional MAC protocols as well as enhancement of their performance with directional antennas via both analytical and simulation approaches. In the first part, we present the first analytical modeling of collision avoidance MAC protocols including the popular IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol in multi-hop ad hoc networks. We show that in ad hoc networks with a lot of hidden terminals, collision avoidance even if done correctly, can still limit achievable throughput significantly because of the much reduced spatial reuse. Then we advance the analytical modeling to evaluate those MAC protocols which use directional antennas and can achieve much higher throughput through directing transmissions and receptions to desired directions only. We show that the gain in spatial reuse outweighs that of collision avoidance and hence an aggressive all-directional scheme is more advantageous than other hybrid schemes that take conservative (or unnecessary) tradeoff between collision avoidance and spatial reuse. All the analytical work has provided very useful insight on the interaction between spatial reuse, interference reduction and collision avoidance that previous work lacked.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The next-generation wireless networks are expected to integrate diverse network architectures and various wireless access technologies to provide a robust solution for ubiquitous broadband wireless access, such as wireless local area networks (WLANs), Ultra-Wideband (UWB), and millimeter-wave (mmWave) based wireless personal area networks (WPANs), etc. To enhance the spectral efficiency and link reliability, smart antenna systems have been proposed as a promising candidate for future broadband access networks. To effectively exploit the increased capabilities of the emerging wireless networks, the different network characteristics and the underlying physical layer features need to be considered in the medium access control (MAC) design, which plays a critical role in providing efficient and fair resource sharing among multiple users. In this thesis, we comprehensively investigate the MAC design in both single- and multi-hop broadband wireless networks, with and without infrastructure support.

Download or read book An Enhanced Medium Access Control Protocol for Ad Hoc Networks written by Priyadarshini Sabut and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ad hoc Networks are the most popular networks and are useful in many application environments due to less cost and easy deployment at anytime anywhere. The efficiency of these networks depends on the performance and reliability of the medium access control (MAC) protocol applied in such networks. The IEEE 802.11 DCF MAC protocol for ad hoc networks suffers from the problem of bandwidth sharing due to presence of hidden and exposed nodes. This book discusses a MAC protocol that not only overcomes the problem of hidden and exposed nodes but also allows the hidden nodes to transmit and exposed nodes to receive without interfering with the ongoing transmission in their vicinity, thereby improving channel utilization. The proposed protocol outperforms IEEE 802.11 DCF MAC in terms of throughput and packet delivery ratio with a little cost of control overhead.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless transmission medium suffers from channel impairments like fading and path loss leading to performance degradations in terms of reduced throughput and increased latency. Medium access control protocols designed for wireless networking today provide multiple retransmissions as a way to account for frame losses caused by the channel. By retransmitting in the same channel, effectiveness of retransmissions can be reduced due to prolonged periods of channel impairments like obstacles in the line of sight of communication. Spatial diversity provides statistically different channels that can compensate for frame losses. Wireless medium being broadcast in nature paves way to achieve spatial diversity by asking neighboring nodes that can overhear transmissions to retransmit the frames. This procedure is termed cooperation. The nodes that help in successful communication between two other nodes are called relays. Medium access control protocols that are designed to account for cooperation are called cooperative medium access control protocols. This thesis presents one such cooperative protocol. The cooperative protocol presented in this thesis is unique in that the relays are opportunistic in nature. Relays here only help the source that is transmitting frames to a destination when a transmission failure occurs. A metric to find a suitable relay is presented and heurisitic algorithms to find transmission rate pairs for links in the cooperative setup are also presented. The thesis also shows that the cooperative protocol proposed can also be used in multi-hop networks. A cross layer routing metric to jointly perform route and relay selection in multi-hop networks is also presented. Simulation and analytical studies were carried out and results are presented in this thesis comparing the performance of the cooperative protocol presented here and the standard protocol it is based on. Performance improvements in terms of throughput and latency are brought about by using opportunistic cooperation. The performance improvements depend on careful selection of relays and transmission rates used for the links in the cooperative setup. The gains perceived in single hop networks were also seen in multi-hop networks but the magnitude of gains in multi-hop scenarios were dependent on network topology.

This book was released on 2013-03-23 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This brief investigates distributed medium access control (MAC) with QoS provisioning for both single- and multi-hop wireless networks including wireless local area networks (WLANs), wireless ad hoc networks, and wireless mesh networks. For WLANs, an efficient MAC scheme and a call admission control algorithm are presented to provide guaranteed QoS for voice traffic and, at the same time, increase the voice capacity significantly compared with the current WLAN standard. In addition, a novel token-based scheduling scheme is proposed to provide great flexibility and facility to the network service provider for service class management. Also proposed is a novel busy-tone based distributed MAC scheme for wireless ad hoc networks and a collision-free MAC scheme for wireless mesh networks, respectively, taking the different network characteristics into consideration. The proposed schemes enhance the QoS provisioning capability to real-time traffic and, at the same time, significantly improve the system throughput and fairness performance for data traffic, as compared with the most popular IEEE 802.11 MAC scheme.
Download or read book Medium Access Control and Adaptive Transmission Techniques in Wireless Networks written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efficient utilization of the limited wireless spectrum while satisfying applications' quality of service requirements is an essential design goal of forthcoming wireless networks and a key to their successful deployment. The need for spectrally efficient systems has motivated the development of adaptive transmission techniques. Enabling this adaptation requires protocols for information exchange as well as mathematical tools to optimize the controllable parameters. In this dissertation, we provide insights into such protocols and mathematical tools that target efficient utilization of the wireless spectrum. First, we propose a distributed CDMA-based medium access protocol for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). Our approach accounts for multiple access interference at the protocol level, thereby addressing the notorious near-far problem that undermines the throughput performance in MANETs. Second, we present a novel power-controlled MAC protocol, called POWMAC, which enjoys the same single-channel, single-transceiver design of the IEEE 802.11 Ad Hoc MAC protocol, but which achieves a significant throughput improvement over the 802.11 protocol. Third, we consider joint power/rate optimization in the context of orthogonal modulation (OM) and investigate the performance gains achieved through adaptation of the OM order using recently developed optimization techniques. We show that such adaptation can significantly increase network throughput while simultaneously reducing the per-bit energy consumption relative to fixed-order modulation systems. Finally, we determine the maximum achievable p̀̀erformance" of a wireless CDMA network that employs a conventional matched filter receiver and that operates under \emph{optimal} link-layer adaptation where each user individually achieves the Shannon capacity. The derived bounds serve as benchmarks against which adaptive CDMA systems can be compared.

Download or read book Throughput and Fairness of Collision Avoidance Protocols in Ad Hoc Networks written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless ad hoc networks have received increasing interest in recent years because of their potential to be used in a variety of applications without the aid of any pre-existing network infrastructure. Due to the scarce channel bandwidth available in ad hoc networks, the design of efficient and effective medium access control (MAC) protocols that regulate nodes' access to a shared channel has become the subject of active research in recent years. Many MAC protocols have been proposed to mitigate the adverse effects of hidden terminals through collision avoidance. In Section 1, The authors present an analytical modeling to derive the saturation throughput of these sender-initiated collision avoidance protocols in multi-hop ad hoc networks with nodes randomly placed according to a two-dimensional Poisson distribution. They show that the sender-initiated collision-avoidance scheme achieves much higher throughput than the ideal CSMA scheme with a separate channel for acknowledgments. They also show that the collision-avoidance scheme can accommodate far fewer competing nodes within a region in a network infested with hidden terminals than in a fully connected network, if reasonable throughput is to be maintained. Simulations of the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol and one of its variants validate the predictions made in the analysis. The simulation results also reveal the fairness problem in IEEE 802.11, which refers to the severe throughput degradation of some nodes due to their unfavorable locations in the network and the commonly used binary exponential backoff (BEB) algorithm that always favors the node that last succeeds. Section 2 introduce a framework to address the fairness problem and propose a topology-aware fair access (TAFA) scheme to realize the framework. Simulation results show that TAFA can solve the fairness problem in UDP-based applications with negligible degradation in throughput. Section 3 concludes this chapter with directions for future work.

Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2011 in the subject Computer Science - Internet, New Technologies, Lille 1 University (Laboratoire d'Informatique Fondamentale de Lille), course: Security in Wireless Multi-hop Networks, language: English, abstract: While the rapid proliferation of mobile devices along with the tremendous growth of various applications using wireless multi-hop networks have significantly facilitate our human life, securing and ensuring high quality services of these networks are still a primary concern. In particular, anomalous protocol operation in wireless multi-hop networks has recently received considerable attention in the research community. These relevant security issues are fundamentally different from those of wireline networks due to the special characteristics of wireless multi-hop networks, such as the limited energy resources and the lack of centralized control. These issues are extremely hard to cope with due to the absence of trust relationships between the nodes. To enhance security in wireless multi-hop networks, this dissertation addresses both MAC and routing layers misbehaviors issues, with main focuses on thwarting black hole attack in proactive routing protocols like OLSR, and greedy behavior in IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol. Our contributions are briefly summarized as follows. As for black hole attack, we analyze two types of attack scenarios: one is launched at routing layer, and the other is cross layer. We then provide comprehensive analysis on the consequences of this attack and propose effective countermeasures. As for MAC layer misbehavior, we particularly study the adaptive greedy behavior in the context of Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) and propose FLSAC (Fuzzy Logic based scheme to Struggle against Adaptive Cheaters) to cope with it. A new characterization of the greedy behavior in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) is also introduced. Finally, we design a new backoff scheme to quickly detect the greedy nodes that
