Wireless ad hoc networks are temporary formed, infrastructureless networks. Due to the unstable channel conditions and network connectivity, their characteristics impose serious challenges in front of network designers. The layering approach to network design does not fit the ad hoc environment well. Therefore, various cross-layering approaches, where protocol layers actively interact, exchange inherent layer information and fine tune their parameters according to the network status are becoming increasingly popular. This paper presents an in-depth analysis of the latest cross-layering approaches for wireless ad hoc networks supported by several examples. A special emphasis is put on the link and network layer related cross-layer designs. Several link adaptation and efficient service discovery schemes are elaborated through analytical and simulation studies. Their performance shows the potentials of the cross-layering for boosting system characteristics in wireless ad hoc networks.

In this paper, we present a collision free MAC protocol for wireless networks with smart antennas that provides proportional
service differentiation to various classes of traffic based on their respective bandwidth demand. The proposed protocol works
for diverse physical parameters such as number of interfaces at each node, number of communication frequencies, and antenna
beamwidth. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that provides link layer differentiated services for wireless
networks with smart antennas and explores the influence of the physical parameters and network topology on the performance
of the MAC layer.

Energy-Efficient Operation through Interference Avoidance for Interconnected Bluetooth WPANs 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Petar Popovski Hiroyuki Yomo Liljana Gavrilovska Sergio Guarracino Ramjee Prasad 《Wireless Personal Communications》2005,34(1-2):163-187
A Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) provides wireless networking among proximate devices, usually carried by an individual.
Bluetooth is a first instance of the WPAN technology. The basic networking entity in Bluetooth is a piconet. Several piconets
(WPANs) can be interconnected into a scatternet, which can be considered as an extendable multi-hop ad hoc networking structure.
Since Bluetooth operates in the unlicensed ISM band, each piconet uses pseudorandom frequency hopping. If collocated piconets
use the same channel simultaneously, the piconets interfere with each other and the transmitted packets are lost in collisions.
This interference is termed self-interference. The piconets that are networked into scatternet exhibit spatial overlapping
and naturally produce multi-piconet self-interference. The collisions cause retransmissions and increase the energy spent
per data portion, which results in energy-inefficient operation. To tackle this problem, in our previous work we have proposed
a self-interference avoidance (SIA) mechanism. However, this basic SIA mechanism is oblivious with respect to the physical
topology and does not account for the mitigation of self-interference due to the propagation effects. Furthermore, the basic
SIA mechanism relies on the assumption that all piconets are using packets of identical and fixed length. In this paper we
will generalize the SIA mechanism to overcome the stated restrictions. We propose the adaptive SIA (A-SIA) algorithm, which adapts the SIA algorithm to the actual interference. The simulation results show that A-SIA largely retains
the energy gain offered by the SIA algorithm, while significantly improving the goodput. We also design an instance of the
SIA mechanism that operates with variable-length packets, referred as generalized SIA (G-SIA) algorithm. Our simulation results show that the G-SIA algorithm offers good performance in terms of goodput and energy efficiency,
but the goodput is degraded if inappropriate segmentation/reassembly policy is used.

We formalize a model for a self-organizing network of nodes that operate according to the UWB principle based on hybrid modelling
formalism. We design the rules that lead to the formation of the network and in particular an admission control procedure
that is capable to handle both continuous and discrete perturbations, while maintaining the network in a condition of stability.
Cognition is introduced in the model by allowing nodes to adjust their rules of operation based on the perception of the environment
by an elected node, serving as the observer, that is aware of context, evaluates, and selects one strategy of operation.

Wireless multihop mobile networks, also known as ad hoc networks, are characterized by stochastic topology variations. Random
movements of mobile hosts in and out of each other's range encumber smooth system operation and impose limitations on the
network performance. Various routing protocols suitable for such networks have been proposed however implementation and performance
issues are still considered top research priorities. This paper proposes a new reactive protocol that introduces the use of
sequence numbers for evaluating validity of cached routing information when source routing and route caching are used. The
new protocol reduces the possibility of using and spreading across the network stale routing information therefore reduces
the overhead involved in finding a route. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed protocol we compare it, through a
detailed simulation model, with Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol which also uses source routing and route caching. Results
prove that the proposed protocol effectively reduces use of stale routing information, improving performance compared to DSR
in terms of both delivery ratio and routing overhead.

This paper discusses what a new paradigm can be in wireless communication systems of the twenty-first century. First, it suggests two directions for the new paradigm; one is “micro- and nano-device communication system” which is the projected scenario considering that the entities in source and destination have been shrinking throughout the history of wireless communication systems. The second direction is “networked robot system”, which emerges as a natural extension of mobile ad hoc networking where the networking is closely related to motion control of robots. Secondly, it shows two interesting research topics, “the new communication protocol design” and “signal processing”, respectively, that arise in the wake of the fusion between the two directions in the novel communication paradigm. Finally, it considers a new science of wireless communications in the twenty-first century.

This paper addresses the issue of energy efficiency for error control mechanisms over WPAN systems. An analytical formulation
has been developed to study the trade-off between link layer performance and energy consumption for two types of error control
schemes: pure ARQ and type II hybrid ARQ protocol. An MC-CDMA-based system is considered. First of all, the analysis has been
used to compare different error recovery schemes from the energy efficiency point of view. Moreover, it has been found that,
for any channel conditions, there exists an optimal value of the transmit power that maximizes the energy efficiency. The
paper also shows how this result can be used to design the power control of an energy efficient CDMA-based communication system.

Wireless Local Area Networks have gained popularity at an unprecedented rate over the last few years. However, as the spectrum of applications they are called to support broadens, their inefficiency in meeting the diverse requirements of a wider range of applications becomes evident. Most existing access mechanisms cannot provide Quality-of-Service (QoS) assurances. Even those that are QoS aware can only provide relative service differentiation. In this work, we propose a dynamic priority medium access scheme to provide time-bounded services. By approximating an ideal Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduler, the proposed scheme can offer delay and delay jitter assurances while achieving high medium utilization. Analytical studies and simulation experiments document and confirm the positive characteristics of the proposed mechanism.

The future of telecommunications is to reach mass population in all regions of the world with services that will benefit humankind leading to the betterment of its and all life in our planet. Telecommunications and its services have to and will become part of life as is breathing to mankind. This future is by far not achieved and for some time to come whatever we develop there is always a next step to it. After all, that keeps our world going.Currently we are again at that stage of work on future generation communications where these words have not yet achieved a consensus. In this paper let us look at the crystal ball and try to materialize at least in words what we see in it [1–20].We first define fourth generation (4G) communication system and beyond 3G (B3G). Then we look at the requirements for future generation communications from the perspective of the users, the operators, and the service providers. Next the technologies that should and are being developed to materialize the future generation are discussed. A dip is also taken into the ongoing standardization or pre-standardization efforts. At first the introduction section tries to raise questions on the “future”.Prof. Dr. Ramjee Prasad, while being a father always there for his children, is also a visionary and a leader in the field of telecommunications. It is with pride and honour that I write in this paper, on the occasion of 60th birthday of my father, my thoughts of the future of telecommunications. I owe to him and my mother the knowledge that I present and the future that I have written of. It is from the spark that they had put in me that this vision of future was created thus the title “the future re-visited”.

This paper demonstrates the advantages of using controlled mobility in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for increasing their
lifetime, i.e., the period of time the network is able to provide its intended functionalities. More specifically, for WSNs
that comprise a large number of statically placed sensor nodes transmitting data to a collection point (the sink), we show
that by controlling the sink movements we can obtain remarkable lifetime improvements. In order to determine sink movements,
we first define a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) analytical model whose solution determines those sink routes that
maximize network lifetime. Our contribution expands further by defining the first heuristics for controlled sink movements
that are fully distributed and localized. Our Greedy Maximum Residual Energy (GMRE) heuristic moves the sink from its current location to a new site as if drawn toward the area where nodes have the
highest residual energy. We also introduce a simple distributed mobility scheme (Random Movement or RM) according to which the sink moves uncontrolled and randomly throughout the network. The different mobility schemes
are compared through extensive ns2-based simulations in networks with different nodes deployment, data routing protocols,
and constraints on the sink movements. In all considered scenarios, we observe that moving the sink always increases network
lifetime. In particular, our experiments show that controlling the mobility of the sink leads to remarkable improvements,
which are as high as sixfold compared to having the sink statically (and optimally) placed, and as high as twofold compared
to uncontrolled mobility.

Time Hopping Ultra Wide Band (TH–UWB) commonly encodes the data symbols by shifting the position of the transmitted pulses
by a quantity that is quantized over the inter-pulse interval range. In this paper, we relax the hypothesis of a discrete
value for the time shift introduced by the TH code, by considering the possibility of generating real-valued codes that introduce
time hopping in a “fluid” way. The effect on the power spectral density of generated signals is analyzed, and application
of fluid coding to multiple access and to network coexistence is investigated by simulation.
Portions of this work were presented at the 2005 2nd International Workshop Networking with Ultra Wide Band, Workshop on Ultra
Wide Band for Sensor Networks [M.G. Di Benedetto, G. Giancola, D. Domenicali and P. Ingargiola “Fluid Coding in Time Hopping

Decentralized Utility-based Sensor Network Design 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Narayanan Sadagopan Mitali Singh Bhaskar Krishnamachari 《Mobile Networks and Applications》2006,11(3):341-350
Wireless sensor networks consist of energy-constrained sensor nodes operating unattended in highly dynamic environments. In
this paper, we advocate a systematic decentralized approach towards the design of such networks based on utility functions.
A local utility function is defined for each sensor node in the network. While each sensor node “selfishly” optimizes its
own utility, the network as a “whole” converges to a desired global objective. For the purpose of demonstrating our approach,
we consider the following two separate case studies for data gathering in sensor networks: (a) construction of a load balanced
tree and (b) construction of an energy balanced tree. Our work suggests a significant departure from the existing view of
sensor networks as consisting of cooperative nodes, i.e. “selfish”sensor nodes is a useful paradigm for designing efficient
distributed algorithms for these networks.

Broadband Fixed Wireless Access (BFWA) systems represent a potential technological foundation for the Fourth Generation of Wireless Mobile Communication Systems (4G) as they can replace wired broadband and, with sufficient widespreading deployment, can significantly cut into the usage of cellular networks in many areas. In this context, the seamless interworking of Wireless Metropolitan Area Network (WMAN) and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) technologies is an efficient solution to provide the indoor extension of BFWA systems coverage, which would largely contribute to their success and penetration in the market. In this paper, we introduce a novel Access Point (AP), called WMAN/WLAN AP (WWAP), which essentially integrates in a compact device a WMAN Subscriber Station (SS) and a WLAN AP in order to extend the WMAN coverage in-house and to guarantee the end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS). Besides the technical features, the market trends and the usage scenarios where the WWAP might be a cost-effective and a very efficient solution are outlined. Finally, simulation results are carried out in order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed AP.

The paper presents a routing algorithm that maximizes the lifetime of a sensor network in which all data packets are destined
for a single collection node. Lifetime is maximized by adjusting the number of packets traversing each node. The adjustment
is carried out by transmitting over alternative routes. The first part of the paper assumes that the worst case delay resulting
from energy efficient routing is less than the maximum tolerable value. Ignoring the delay constraint of the network, the
routes are selected as the solution to a linear programming (LP) problem in which the objective is to maximize the minimum
lifetime of each node. The solution is implemented in a centralized algorithm, and then approximated by an iterative algorithm
based on least cost path routing, in which each step is implemented efficiently in a distributed manner. The second part of
the paper incorporates delay guarantee into energy efficient routing by constraining the length of the routing paths from
each sensor node to the collection node. Simulations reveal that the lifetime of the network increases significantly by optimal
routing, and including delay constraint in energy efficient routing improves the network performance since the delay of the
network keeps increasing as the delay constraint is relaxed beyond the value at which the optimal lifetime is achieved.

We describe possible denial of service attacks to access points in infrastructure wireless networks using the 802.11b protocol.
To carry out such attacks, only commodity hardware and software components are required. The experimental results obtained
on a large set of different access points show that serious vulnerabilities exist in any device we tested and that a single
malicious station can easily hinder any legitimate communication within a basic service set.

Energy aware efficient geographic routing in lossy wireless sensor networks with environmental energy supply 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Wireless sensor networks are characterized by multihop wireless lossy links and resource constrained nodes. Energy efficiency
is a major concern in such networks. In this paper, we study Geographic Routing with Environmental Energy Supply (GREES) and
propose two protocols, GREES-L and GREES-M, which combine geographic routing and energy efficient routing techniques and take
into account the realistic lossy wireless channel condition and the renewal capability of environmental energy supply when
making routing decisions. Simulation results show that GREESs are more energy efficient than the corresponding residual energy
based protocols and geographic routing protocols without energy awareness. GREESs can maintain higher mean residual energy
on nodes, and achieve better load balancing in terms of having smaller standard deviation of residual energy on nodes. Both
GREES-L and GREES-M exhibit graceful degradation on end-to-end delay, but do not compromise the end-to-end throughput performance.

Providing Throughput Guarantees in 802.11e WLAN Through a Dynamic Priority Assignment Mechanism 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Antonio Iera Giuseppe Ruggeri Domenico Tripodi 《Wireless Personal Communications》2005,34(1-2):109-125
Supporting real-time and interactive traffic in addition to traditional data traffic with a best-effort nature represents
a constantly rising need in any kind of telecommunications environment. The IEEE 802.11 based WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network)
environment does not represent an exception. This is why at different protocol layers, and primarily at the MAC layer, many
efforts are being put by both the research community and the standardization bodies to design effective mechanisms for user
QoS (Quality of Service) differentiation. Although early results are coming into sight, such as, for example, the IEEE 802.11e
standard release, still a thorough research activity is required. Aim of the present paper is to contribute to the cited research
issue by proposing an improvement to the “static” traffic prioritisation mechanism foreseen by the IEEE 802.11e MAC (Medium
Access Control) protocol. This latter shows a twofold drawback. First, there is no certainty that QoS requirements relevant
to a given application are always fulfilled by the “statically” associated priority. Second, resource requests of the applications
are not adapted to the (usually highly) variable traffic conditions of a distributed WLAN environment. The algorithm we propose
is specifically tailored to “dynamically” assign 802.11e MAC priorities, depending on both application QoS requirements and
observed network congestion conditions. It is carefully designed, implemented into a system simulation tool, and its highly
effective behaviour assessed under variable traffic and system conditions.

The paper describes the design and simulation of a radio modem architecture, which provides wireless access to Internet in a single-hop, ad hoc network.The main emphasis is on the Medium Access Control (MAC) and Dynamic Link Control (DLC) layer’s design, and in particular on the adopted innovative scheduling algorithm, which has been developed to satisfy the system requirements of the WIND-FLEX radio modem. The algorithm is presented and compared to the Earliest Deadline First (EDF) solution.Several software simulation tests have been executed on the network, to test the performance of the system, in order to verify the capability of the scheduler algorithm to satisfy the expected requirements and the efficiency of the implemented solutions.

Energy efficient node-to-node authentication and communication confidentiality in wireless sensor networks 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A distributed Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a collection of low-end devices with wireless message exchange capabilities.
Due to the scarcity of hardware resources, the lack of network infrastructures, and the threats to security, implementing
secure pair-wise communications among any pair of sensors is a challenging problem in distributed WSNs. In particular, memory
and energy consumption as well as resilience to sensor physical compromise are the most stringent requirements. In this paper,
we introduce a new threat model to communications confidentiality in WSNs, the smart attacker model. Under this new, more realistic model, the security features of previously proposed schemes decrease drastically. We
then describe a novel pseudo-random key pre-deployment strategy ESP that combines all the following properties: (a) it supports
an energy-efficient key discovery phase requiring no communications; (b) it provides node to node authentication; (c) it is
highly resistant to the smart attacker.We provide both asymptotic results and extensive simulations of the schemes that are
beingproposed.
