移动无线传感器网络中基于簇的功率控制路由

提出两个WSN协议,即功率控制路由(PCR)协议和增强功率控制路由(EPCR)协议,在两个协议中,固定传送功率只用于聚簇阶段,当普通节点传送传感数据到簇头时,将根据节点本身与簇头之间的距离,改变发送功率.在PCR中,节点在权重值的基础上与簇头相关,而在EPCR中,节点则是在基本距离的基础上与簇头相关.除了协议,还为PCR和EPCR提出了包丢失恢复机制.仿真结果显示,两个协议无论是在移动和静态网络中都工作良好,通过使用不同的功率和智能聚簇,可实现较高的包交付率和网络呑吐量,延长了网络的生存时间.     

水声通信网络中的MACA-C介质访问控制协议

介质访问控制协议（Medium Access Control , MAC）是水声通信网络中的一种关键技术。与陆地无线通信系统使用无线电波有所不同,水声通信网络依靠水声进行通信。水声通信网络中的MAC协议设计面临许多挑战面,如:传播延迟大、带宽窄、电池不易更换或充电、节点发射功率受限等。因此,陆地无线通信系统的各MAC协议不能直接应用到水声通信网络。本文提出了一种适用于水声通信网络的MACA（MACA-C）协议,该协议主要将传输数据包和控制包结合使用,在每轮握手的过程中,该协议通过发送列的首数据包和RTS控制包来改善信道利用率。仿真结果也表明MACA-C能够达到较高的和稳定的吞吐量性能,同时在保持低碰撞率的前提下增加信道利用率。

基于地理位置信息和功率控制的ad hoc网络并行MAC协议

对暴露终端并行传输产生的冲突干扰问题进行了研究,并在此基础上提出了一种基于地理位置信息和功率控制的ad hoc网络并行MAC协议.该协议利用地理位置信息判断节点的暴露终端身份,并在暴露终端发起的并行传输中引入了功率控制机制.在并行传输发送成功概率较低的情况下,该协议通过随机退避机制限制并行传输发起的次数,避免了失败的并行传输对其他接收节点产生干扰并导致节点产生不必要的能耗.仿真证明,该协议在显著提高ad hoc网络平均吞吐量的同时,还能有效节省节点的平均能耗,从而延长节点的工作时间和网络的生存时间.

A distributed transmission power control protocol for mobile ad hoc networks

In this paper, we propose a comprehensive solution for power control in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). Our solution emphasizes the interplay between the MAC and network layers, whereby the MAC layer indirectly influences the selection of the next-hop by properly adjusting the power of route request packets. This is done while maintaining network connectivity. Channel-gain information obtained mainly from overheard RTS and CTS packets is used to dynamically construct the network topology. Unlike the IEEE 802.11 approach and previously proposed schemes, ours does not use the RTS/CTS packets to silence the neighboring nodes. Instead, collision avoidance information is inserted in the CTS packets and sent over an out-of-band control channel. This information is used to dynamically bound the transmission power of potentially interfering nodes in the vicinity of a receiver. By properly estimating the required transmission power for data packets, our protocol allows for interference-limited simultaneous transmissions to take place in the neighborhood of a receiving node. Simulation results indicate that, compared to the IEEE 802.11 approach, the proposed protocol achieves a significant increase in the channel utilization and end-to-end network throughput and a significant decrease in the total energy consumption.     

Tone Dual‐Channel MAC Protocol with Directional Antennas for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

The directional medium access control (MAC) protocol improves the throughput of mobile ad hoc networks but has a deafness problem and requires location information for neighboring nodes. In the dual‐channel directional MAC protocol [12], the use of omnidirectional packets does not require the exact location of destination node. In this letter, we propose a tone dual‐channel MAC protocol with directional antennas to improve the throughput of mobile ad hoc networks. In the proposed MAC protocol, we use a directional CTS and an out‐of‐band directional DATA tone with a new blocking algorithm to improve the spatial reuse. We confirm the throughput performance of the proposed MAC protocol by computer simulations using the Qualnet simulator.     

A High-Throughput MAC Protocol for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

One way to improve the throughput of a wireless ad hoc network at the media access (MAC) layer is to allow as much as possible concurrent transmissions among neighboring nodes. In this paper, we present a novel high-throughput MAC protocol, called Concurrent Transmission MAC(CTMAC), which supports concurrent transmission while allowing the network to have a simple design with a single channel, single transceiver, and single transmission power architecture. CTMAC inserts additional control gap between the transmission of control packets (RTS/CTS) and data packets (DATA/ACK), which allows a series of RTS/CTS exchanges to take place between the nodes in the vicinity of the transmitting or receiving node to schedule possible multiple, concurrent data transmissions. To safeguard the concurrent data transmission, collision avoidance information is included in the control packets and used by the neighboring nodes to determine whether they should begin their transmissions. Also, to isolate the possible interference between DATA packets and ACK packets, a new ACK sequence mechanism is proposed. Simulation results show that a significant gain in throughput can be obtained by the CTMAC protocol compared with the existing work including the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol.     

一种自组网功率控制算法及分析

无线自组网中的移动节点大多依靠电池提供能量,因此能量是影响无线自组网性能的一个很大的瓶颈,作为事实上的无线自组网媒体接入协议,802.11并没有动态调整传输功率的能力,大大限制了网络的生存时间。采用功率控制可以提高节点的功率使用效率,减少相邻节点间的干扰,改善网络的性能。在802.11基础上提出一种基于信噪比的动态传输功率控制算法。通过进行计算机仿真,与802.11协议相比,在保持吞吐量性能的前提下,大大减少了节点的功率消耗,提高了节点的能量利用率。

Mobility-aware timeout medium access control protocol for wireless sensor networks

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs), has been under development for a while by the academia and industry. Due to limited computational power, a typical sensor node may experience operational challenges. Moreover, mobility has become an important feature since emergency and healthcare related applications are evolving in WSNs. Consideration of mobile nodes in WSNs introduce new challenges for the designers. In this paper, an enhanced version of T-MAC protocol (a well-known medium access control protocol in WSNs) known as MT-MAC is proposed. Using the capturing fluctuation in RSSI and LQI values of the received SYNC packets, MT-MAC solves high packet drop ratio in T-MAC. By detecting the mobility, a mobile node softly handover to a new virtual cluster without losing connection with other nodes. The performance of the proposed solution is then compared with T-MAC, S-MAC as well as other well-known mobility-aware MAC (MS-MAC) protocol. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol significantly increases the throughput and packet delivery ratio of T-MAC in exchange for a small increase in power consumption. Compared to MS-MAC protocol, the proposed approach can reduce power consumption by 20–65%, and achieve slightly higher packet delivery ratio.     

一种用于无线自组织网络的并发传输MAC协议

本文提出一种工作在单信道、单发射器和单发射功率模式下的并发传输MAC协议.该协议在控制报文(RTS/CTS)和数据报文(DADA/ACK)之间插入附加控制时隙,以便相邻节点有机会交换自己的控制报文.为了保证并发传输的可靠性,协议在控制报文中包含了冲突避免信息,邻居节点根据这些信息判断自己的传输能否在不影响已有传输的情况下并发进行.模拟结果显示,与IEEE 802.11相比,CTMAC协议在网络中存在并发可能时,使系统吞吐量得到很大提高.     

A hybrid reservation-based MAC protocol for underwater acoustic sensor networks

Due to the characteristics of underwater acoustic channel, such as long propagation delay and low available bandwidth, media access control (MAC) protocol designed for the underwater acoustic sensor network (UWASN) is quite different from that for the terrestrial wireless sensor network. However, for the contention-based MAC protocols, the packet transmission time is long because of the long preamble in real acoustic modems, which increase the packet collisions. And the competition phase lasts for long time when many nodes are competing for the channel to access. For the schedule-based MAC protocols, the delay is too long, especially in a UWASN with low traffic load. In order to resolve these problems, a hybrid reservation-based MAC (HRMAC) protocol is proposed for UWASNs in this paper. In the proposed HRMAC protocol, the nodes reserve the channel by declaring and spectrum spreading technology is used to reduce the collision of the control packets. Many nodes with data packets to be transmitted can reserve the channel simultaneously, and nodes with reserved channel transmit their data in a given order. The performance analysis shows that the proposed HRMAC protocol can improve the channel efficiency greatly. Simulation results also show that the proposed HRMAC protocol achieves better performance, namely higher network throughput, lower packet drop ratio, smaller end-to-end delay, less overhead of control packets and lower energy overhead, compared to existing typical MAC protocols for the UWASNs.     

Improved MAC protocol for reverse link packet data transmission in wideband DS-CDMA

This paper introduces and analyses a novel medium access control protocol for reverse links in wideband direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) mobile systems. The proposed protocol is particularly efficient when data consists of short packets. The new MAC protocol uses the time taken by the receiver to process the packets (the processing delay) to admit a new packet. When packet arrival is assumed to be Poisson, analysis and simulations show consistently that, for short packets, the new MAC scheme can handle a higher arrival rate than the conventional one, in which the processing delay is not used. The new MAC scheme shows only slight throughput degradation, a high utilization of the packet-switched data channel, and achieves a fair treatment of mobile stations.
