Feedback-assisted MAC protocol for real time traffic in high rate wireless personal area networks

During the past decade, there has been much standardization effort for indoor or shot-range networks, as communication devices and applications for such networks populate. As a prominent example of these activities, the IEEE 802.15.3 Task Group (TG) published a standard for high-rate wireless personal area network (HR-WPAN). To support strictly timed multimedia services, the TG adopts a time-slotted channel access protocol controlled by a central device (DEV). Although the channel time allocation algorithm plays a key role in deciding the network performance, it remains unspecified in the standard. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a novel feedback-assisted channel time allocation method for HR-WPAN. After initial channel times are allocated based on packet inter-arrival time statistics, the allocation is dynamically adjusted by utilizing feedback information from each DEV. The feedback information includes the buffer status, the packet transmission delay, and the physical transmission rate. By utilizing this feedback information, the central DEV can allocate sufficient channel time for transmissions of pending packets from a DEV. Moreover, the allocated channel times can be synchronized to the packet arrival times so that the overall transmission delay is reduced. To cope with time-varying wireless channels, a dynamic rate selection algorithm assisted by physical layer information is proposed in this paper. Performance evaluation is carried out through extensive simulations, from which significant performance enhancements are observed.     

SoftMAC: Layer 2.5 Collaborative MAC for Multimedia Support in Multihop Wireless Networks

In this paper, we present the challenges in supporting multimedia, in particular, VoIP services over multihop wireless networks using commercial IEEE 802.11 MAC DCF hardware, and propose a novel software solution, called Layer 2.5 SoftMAC. Our proposed SoftMAC resides between the IEEE 802.11 MAC layer and the IP layer to coordinate the real-time (RT) multimedia and best-effort (BE) data packet transmission among neighboring nodes in a multihop wireless network. To effectively ensure acceptable VoIP services, channel busy time and collision rate need to be well controlled below appropriate levels. Targeted at this, our SoftMAC architecture employs three key mechanisms: 1) distributed admission control for regulating the load of RT traffic, 2) rate control for minimizing the impact of BT traffic on RT one, and 3) nonpreemptive priority queuing for providing high priority service to VoIP traffic. To evaluate the efficacy of these mechanisms, extensive simulations are conducted using the network simulator NS2. We also implement our proposed SoftMAC as a Windows network driver interlace specification (NDIS) driver and build a multihop wireless network testbed with 32 wireless nodes equipped with IEEE 802.11 a/b/g combo cards. Our evaluation and testing results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed software solution. Our proposed collaborative SoftMAC framework can also provide good support for A/V streaming in home networks where the network consists of hybrid WLAN (wireless LAN) and Ethernet

A Cross-Layering Design for IPv6 Fast Handover Support in an IEEE 802.16e Wireless MAN

Broadband wireless access networks, such as the IEEE 802.16 standard for wireless metropolitan area networks (WMANs), aim to provide high bandwidth, low-cost, scalable solutions that extend multimedia services from backbone networks to wireless users. Because of a larger coverage area, portability and mobility have become significant issues for providing high quality mobile services, as it is crucial to minimize handover latency and maintain IP session continuity. As a result, such issues were addressed by the IEEE 802.16e task group on the mobile WMAN. However, the scope of the IEEE 802.16e standard did not include cross-layering approaches for the enhancement of upper layer handover performance. This article proposes a new cross-layering design for fast IPv6 handover support over IEEE 802.16e. First, we describe the IEEE 802.16 deployment architectures, as well as the link layer, handover procedures in IEEE 802.16e. Next, we describe the operation of fast IPv6 handover and point out the need for interaction between the network layer and the link layer for proper performance. Then, we propose a new cross-layering design to achieve a proper behavior of the fast IPv6 handover over IEEE 802.16e. Finally, we present handover scenarios for the proposed techniques and discuss the major factors that contribute to the handover latency.     

Why isoEthernet will change the voice and video worlds

The answers to many of the communications problems businesses face lie in the integration of telephony, data collaboration, and video communications with the desktop computer, doing it inexpensively, doing it seamlessly with the local area and wide area networks. The adoption of isochronous Ethernet (isoEthernet) by the IEEE 802.9 committee as the new multimedia standard in LANs has given rise to new technology that converges voice, collaborative video, and data at the desktop. The official name for isoEthernet is ISLAN16-T, and it is sponsored by the IEEE 802.9 committee. IEEE 802.9a, the document specifying the isoEthernet standard, became an official standard at the end of 1995. The intent behind the ISLAN16-T standard is to define a LAN transport capable of handling synchronous services such as voice and video while retaining compatibility with 10Base-T. ISLAN16-T opens the door to a multitude of new applications that can reshape work and communications habits to make businesses more productive, responsive, and profitable     

Efficient Radio Resource Management in Integrated WLAN/CDMA Mobile Networks

The complementary characteristics of wireless local area networks (WLANs) and wideband code division multiple access (CDMA) cellular networks make it attractive to integrate these two technologies. How to utilize the overall radio resources optimally in this heterogeneous integrated environment is a challenging issue. This paper proposes an optimal joint session admission control scheme for multimedia traffic that maximizes overall network revenue with quality of service (QoS) constraints over both WLANs and CDMA cellular networks. WLANs operate under IEEE 802.11e medium access control (MAC) protocol, which supports QoS for multimedia traffic. A cross-layer optimization approach is used in CDMA networks taking into account both physical layer linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) receivers and network layer QoS requirements. Numerical examples illustrate that the network revenue earned in the proposed joint admission control scheme is significantly more than that when the individual networks are optimized independently.
