End-to-End Adaptive QoS Provisioning over GPRS Wireless Mobile Network

The General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) offers performance guaranteed packet data services to mobile users over wireless frequency-division duplex links with time division multiple access, and core packet data networks. This paper presents a dynamic adaptive guaranteed Quality-of-Service (QoS) provisioning scheme over GPRS wireless mobile links by proposing a guaranteed QoS media access control (GQ-MAC) protocol and an accompanying adaptive prioritized-handoff call admission control (AP-CAC) protocol to maintain GPRS QoS guarantees under the effect of mobile handoffs. The GQ-MAC protocol supports bounded channel access delay for delay-sensitive traffic, bounded packet loss probability for loss-sensitive traffic, and dynamic adaptive resource allocation for bursty traffic with peak bandwidth allocation adapted to the current queue length. The AP-CAC protocol provides dynamic adaptive prioritized admission by differentiating handoff requests with higher admission priorities over new calls via a dynamic multiple guard channels scheme, which dynamically adapts the capacity reserved for dealing with handoff requests based on the current traffic conditions in the neighboring radio cells. Integrated services (IntServ) QoS provisioning over the IP/ATM-based GPRS core network is realized over a multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) architecture, and mobility is supported over the core network via a novel mobile label-switching tree (MLST) architecture. End-to-end QoS provisioning over the GPRS wireless mobile network is realized by mapping between the IntServ and GPRS QoS requirements, and by extending the AP-CAC protocol from the wireless medium to the core network to provide a unified end-to-end admission control with dynamic adaptive admission priorities.     

QoS Routing for Mesh-Based Wireless LANs

Wireless LANs with their increased data rate become an attractive technology for connecting mobile users to the Internet. Efficient deployment of wireless LANs will require the ability to extend the wireless LANs coverage without the need to deploy a very large number of access points. Mesh-based wireless LANs are an attractive solution to this problem. These networks extend wireless LAN coverage by using each node in the network as a router, resulting in a multihop topology. In this paper we introduce a novel routing algorithm, wireless mesh routing (WMR), that provides quality-of-service (QoS) support and accounts for the characteristics of both infrastructure-based wireless LANs and ad hoc networks. The algorithm is validated using the OPNET modeler. The simulation results show that the mesh network using WMR protocol can provide QoS support and react dynamically to the network status changes with low control overheads. Using the proposed software architecture the proposed routing protocol can be implemented with any MAC protocol, resulting in easy implementation in existing wireless nodes.     

Communication Timing Control and Topology Reconfiguration of a Sink-Free Meshed Sensor Network With Mobile Robots

This paper deals with a unified system of fully distributed meshed sensor network and mobile robot cooperation that serves as a sink node. The meshed sensor network in this paper is composed of static wireless nodes, and is capable of fully distributed peer-to-peer (P2P) ad hoc communication with ZigBee-based protocol. A novel communication timing control employing coupled-oscillator dynamics, named phase-diffusion time-division method (PDTD), has been proposed so far, aiming at realization of an ad hoc collision-free wireless communication network. In this paper, we extend the basic PDTD so that it can exhibit flexible topological reconfiguration according to the moving sink node (robot). Unlike conventional sensor network, no static sink node is supposed inside the network; however, a mobile robot will function as a sink node and access the mesh network from an arbitrary position. A large-scale experiment was conducted, and its results show that satisfactory collaboration between the mesh sensor network and the mobile robot is achieved, and the proposed system outperformed the carrier-sense-multiple-access-based sensor system.     

SOAR: Simple Opportunistic Adaptive Routing Protocol for Wireless Mesh Networks

Multihop wireless mesh networks are becoming a new attractive communication paradigm owing to their low cost and ease of deployment. Routing protocols are critical to the performance and reliability of wireless mesh networks. Traditional routing protocols send traffic along predetermined paths and face difficulties in coping with unreliable and unpredictable wireless medium. In this paper, we propose a Simple Opportunistic Adaptive Routing protocol (SOAR) to explicitly support multiple simultaneous flows in wireless mesh networks. SOAR incorporates the following four major components to achieve high throughput and fairness: 1) adaptive forwarding path selection to leverage path diversity while minimizing duplicate transmissions, 2) priority timer-based forwarding to let only the best forwarding node forward the packet, 3) local loss recovery to efficiently detect and retransmit lost packets, and 4) adaptive rate control to determine an appropriate sending rate according to the current network conditions. We implement SOAR in both NS-2 simulation and an 18-node wireless mesh testbed. Our extensive evaluation shows that SOAR significantly outperforms traditional routing and a seminal opportunistic routing protocol, ExOR, under a wide range of scenarios.     

Cross-layer adaptive control for wireless mesh networks

This paper investigates optimal routing and adaptive scheduling in a wireless mesh network composed of mesh clients and mesh routers. The mesh clients are power constrained mobile nodes with relatively little knowledge of the overall network topology. The mesh routers are stationary wireless nodes with higher transmission rates and more capabilities. We develop a notion of instantaneous capacity regions, and construct algorithms for multi-hop routing and transmission scheduling that achieve network stability and fairness with respect to these regions. The algorithms are shown to operate under arbitrary client mobility models (including non-ergodic models with non-repeatable events), and provide analytical delay guarantees that are independent of the timescales of the mobility process. Our control strategies apply techniques of backpressure, shortest path routing, and Lyapunov optimization.

The key objective of designing the next generation wireless networks is to support of mobile subscribers. To support the mobile host in the hybrid wireless access technologies, many solutions based on network protocol stack have been proposed in the literature. In this article, after review of mobility concepts, a special attention is given to some of the mobility management methods as well as handover techniques across various wireless access networks. We have also compared the major mobility protocols in each layer for their features. Finally, some of the open issues that needed to be addressed in mobility management protocol in the next generation wireless networks are outlined.     

Adaptive load distribution approach based on congestion control scheme in ad-hoc networks

The ‘load distribution’ proposition in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) is accomplishing great stimulation. This is because of the phenomenal facets it possesses including advanced network resilience, reliability and performance. Though there are other leading network layer routing protocols, but they radically utilise single-path communication paradigm, which is why they fail in achieving efficient load distribution in a network. Via this paper, we propose an efficient cross-layer adaptive load distribution approach to capitalise network’s channel utilisation and to rapidly adapt to dynamic wireless channel characteristic changes. The proposed method modifies the load balanced congestion adaptive routing (LBCAR) protocol and is developed using dynamic load distribution technique, by pioneering (i) novel parameters, which report for the availability of route pertaining to minimum traffic load and better link lifetime and also adapt according to varying available network resources; (ii) an absolute dynamic method to lessen the redundant route oscillations which further reduces the routing instabilities. The simulation results demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed method and yields better results in comparison to LBCAR and standard instead of dynamic ource outing, it is dynamic source routing (DSR) protocol.
