Statistical channel models based on BER performance are presented for a frequency- and time-selective vehicle-to-vehicle wireless communications link in an expressway environment in Atlanta, Georgia, where both vehicles traveled in the same direction. The models are developed from measurements taken using the direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) technique at 2.45GHz. A collection of tapped delay line models, referred to as a “partitioned” model in the paper, is developed to attempt to capture the extremes of BER performance of the recorded channel. Overall and partition models are compared to the recorded channel in terms of the BER statistics obtained when the channels are inserted in a dedicated short range radio (DSRC) standard simulation system. The quality of the match between synthesized and recorded channel BER statistics is analyzed with respect to type of modulation (fixed or adaptive), the frame length, and the length of the interval over which the BER was calculated.

Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) has gained momentum in recent years as an effective tool to provide Quality of Service
(QoS) in a variety of networks. This has in turn created active interest in the area of recovery in MPLS based networks. A
number of recovery schemes for MPLS domains have been proposed in recent years. However, the current schemes lack support
for recovery in dynamic network topologies. In this paper, a new flexible signaling protocol for LSP rerouting in dynamic
network environments is introduced. The signaling protocol recovers from node and link failures reactively, taking a local
approach to LSP reestablishment. The performance of the signaling protocol is evaluated through simulations. Results indicate
that the protocol can effectively and efficiently handle rerouting in dynamic networks with a low protocol signaling overhead
as compared to contemporary MPLS rerouting protocols. This would enable the MPLS based IP-QoS support mechanisms to extend
to dynamic network topologies.

Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites provide short round-trip delays and are becoming in- creasingly important. One of the challenges in LEO satellite networks is the development of specialized and efficient routing algorithms. To satisfy the QoS requirements of multimedia applications, satellite routing protocols should consider handovers and minimize their effect on the active connections. A distributed QoS routing scheme based on heuristic ant algorithm is proposed for satisfying delay bound and avoiding link congestion. Simulation results show that the call blocking probabilities of this al- gorithm are less than that of Shortest Path First (SPF) with different delay bound. 相似文献

Due to the rapid development of space communication, satellite networks will be confronted with more complex space environment in future, which poses the important demand on the design of the survivable and efficient routing protocols. Among satellite networks, two-layered Low Earth Orbit (LEO)/Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellite networks (LMSNs) have become an attractive architecture for their better communication service than single-layered satellite networks. To determine the topological dynamics of LMSN, the satellite group and group manager (SGGM) method is a prevalent strategy. However, it can not precisely capture the topological dynamics of the LEO layer, which may result in the unreliability of data transmission. Besides, most existing routing protocols based on the SGGM method will collapse once any top satellite fails. To overcome both limitations, this paper proposes a new topology control strategy for LMSNs. The proposed strategy determines the snapshot in terms of the topological change of the LEO layer, which ensures the topological consistency of routing calculation. Moreover, a new survivable routing protocol (SRP) is presented for LMSNs by combining both centralized and distributed routing strategies. The SRP can provide strong survivability under the LEO or MEO satellite failure. Besides, it can also achieve the minimum delay routing provided the MEO layer can effectively work. The performance of SRP is also evaluated by simulation and analysis. 相似文献

WLAN has strong potential to provide a perfect broadband complement to the 3G wireless systems. This has raised much interest
in their integration. In this paper, a novel architecture using the Network Inter-operating Agent (NIA), and Integration Gateway
(IG) is proposed to integrate the 3G systems and WLANs of various providers that may not necessarily have direct service level
agreement (SLA) among them. The proposed architecture is scalable as it eliminates the need for the creation of bilateral
SLA among the 3G and WLAN operators. In addition, inter-system handover (ISHO) protocols using the concept of the dynamic
boundary area is proposed to support seamless roaming between 3G and WLAN. The dynamic boundary area is determined based on
the speed of the user and WLAN cell size. The ISHO procedures are initiated when a mobile user enters the boundary area of
the WLAN and are completed before the user leaves the coverage area of the serving WLAN. This ensures that the roaming from
WLAN to 3G is transparent to the applications. The performance evaluation shows that the proposed boundary area based ISHO
algorithm outperforms the existing 3G/WLAN ISHO algorithms.

Numerous transport protocols have been proposed in related work for use by mobile hosts over wireless environments. A common
theme among the design of such protocols is that they specifically address the distinct characteristics of the last-hop wireless
link, such as random wireless errors, round-trip time variations, blackouts, handoffs, etc. In this paper, we argue that due
to the defining role played by the wireless link on a connection’s performance, locating the intelligence of a transport protocol
at the mobile host that is adjacent to the wireless link can result in distinct performance advantages. To this end, we present
a receiver-centric transport protocol called RCP (Reception Control Protocol) that is a TCP clone in its general behavior,
but allows for better congestion control, loss recovery, and power management mechanisms compared to sender-centric approaches.
More importantly, in the context of recent trends where mobile hosts are increasingly being equipped with multiple interfaces
providing access to heterogeneous wireless networks, we show that a receiver-centric protocol such as RCP can enable a powerful
and comprehensive transport layer solution for such multi-homed hosts. Specifically, we describe how RCP can be used to provide:
(i) a scalable solution to support interface specific congestion control for a single active connection; (ii) seamless server
migration capability during handoffs; and (iii) effective bandwidth aggregation when receiving data through multiple interfaces,
either from one server, or from multiple replicated servers. We use both packet level simulations, and real Internet experiments
to evaluate the proposed protocol.
In consideration of the typically prevalent server-client nature of traffic in the Internet, we term the protocol ‘receiver-centric’
although precisely it is the mobile host that drives the protocol operation. Note that in this paper, we define the sender
and the receiver of a connection with respect to the direction of the data flow.

One of the challenging tasks in the deployment of dense wireless networks (like sensor networks) is in devising a routing
scheme for node to node communication. Important consideration includes scalability, routing complexity, quality of communication
paths and the load sharing of the routes. In this paper, we show that a compact and expressive abstraction of network connectivity
by the medial axis enables efficient and localized routing. We propose MAP, a Medial Axis based naming and routing Protocol that does not require geographical locations, makes routing decisions locally,
and achieves good load balancing. In its preprocessing phase, MAP constructs the medial axis of the sensor field, defined as the set of nodes with at least two closest boundary nodes. The
medial axis of the network captures both the complex geometry and non-trivial topology of the sensor field. It can be represented
succinctly by a graph whose size is in the order of the complexity of the geometric features (e.g., the number of holes).
Each node is then given a name related to its position with respect to the medial axis. The routing scheme is derived through
local decisions based on the names of the source and destination nodes and guarantees delivery with reasonable and natural
routes. We show by both theoretical analysis and simulations that our medial axis based geometric routing scheme is scalable,
produces short routes, achieves excellent load balancing, and is very robust to variations in the network model.

In the recent past, with the emergence of System-on-Chip (SoC), focus has shifted towards testing system specifications rather than device or module specifications. While the problem of test accessibility for test stimulus application and response capture for such high-speed systems remains a challenge to the test engineers, new test strategies are needed which can address the problem in a practical manner. In this paper, the problem of testing the transmitter and the receiver subsystems of a RF transceiver for system level specification is addressed. Instead of using different conventional test stimuli for testing each of the system level specifications of RF subsystems, a specially crafted test stimulus is used for testing all the specifications from the response of the subsystem-under-test. A new simulation approach has also been developed to perform fast behavioral simulations in frequency domain for the system-under-test. In the test method, frequency domain test response spectra are captured and non-linear regression models are constructed to map the spectral measurements onto the specifications of interest. In the presented simulation results, the test stimuli have been validated using netlist level simulation of the subsystem-under-test and specifications have been predicted within an error of ±3% of the actual value.Soumendu Bhattacharya was born in Calcutta, India, in 1978.

There are two essential ingredients in order for any telecommunications system to be able to provide Quality-of-Service (QoS)
guarantees: connection admission control (CAC) and service differentiation. In wireless local area networks (WLANs), it is
essential to carry out these functions at the MAC level. The original version of IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) protocol
for WLANs does not include either function. The IEEE 802.11e draft standard includes new features to facilitate and promote
the provision of QoS guarantees, but no specific mechanisms are defined in the protocol to avoid over saturating the medium
(via CAC) or to decide how to assign the available resources (via service differentiation through scheduling). This paper
introduces specific mechanisms for both admission control and service differentiation into the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol. The
main contributions of this work are a novel CAC algorithm for leaky-bucket constrained traffic streams, an original frame
scheduling mechanism referred to as DM-SCFQ, and a simulation study of the performance of a WLAN including these features.

There has been much recent attention on using wireless relay networks to forward data from mobile nodes to a base station.
This network architecture is motivated by performance improvements obtained by leveraging the highest quality links to a base
station for data transfer. With the advent of agile radios it is possible to improve the performance of relay networks through
intelligent frequency assignments. First, it is beneficial if the links of the relay network are orthogonal with respect to
each other so that simultaneous transmission on all links is possible. Second, diversity can be added to hops in the relay
network to reduce error rates. In this paper we present algorithms for forming such relay networks dynamically. The formation
algorithms support intelligent frequency assignments and diversity setup. Our results show that algorithms that order the
sequence in which nodes join a relay network carefully, achieve the highest amount of diversity and hence best performance.

This paper presents Quality of Service (QoS) based routing and priority class assignment algorithms. It introduces an end-to-end
delay margin balancing approach to routing, and uses it to formulate a nonlinear optimization problem. In a single-class network,
the formulation is shown to be convex; however in a multi-class priority network, it is only convex within specific regions,
and is infeasible otherwise. A centralized off-line computation technique is proposed to calculate both the route configuration
and end-to-end priority assignment. A gradient-based solution in the convex region and a heuristic to overcome the multi-class
discontinuity are derived. An approximation of the optimization problem is developed for on-line distributed processing is
then presented. Using the approximation, arriving traffic flows can use vector routing tables to search for routes. Compared
with minimum-hop, minimum-delay, and min-interference routing algorithms, the proposed approach enables the single-class network
to accommodate more users of different end-to-end delay requirements. In a multi-class priority network, results show that
using the objective function to combine route and priority class assignment further increases the supportable network traffic
volume.

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.

An important objective of next-generation wireless networks is to provide quality of service (QoS) guarantees. This requires
a simple and efficient wireless channel model that can easily translate into connection-level QoS measures such as data rate,
delay and delay-violation probability. To achieve this, in Wu and Negi (IEEE Trans. on Wireless Communications 2(4) (2003)
630–643), we developed a link-layer channel model termed effective capacity, for the setting of a single hop, constant-bit-rate arrivals, fluid traffic, and wireless channels with negligible propagation
delay. In this paper, we apply the effective capacity technique to deriving QoS measures for more general situations, namely,
(1) networks with multiple wireless links, (2) variable-bit-rate sources, (3) packetized traffic, and (4) wireless channels
with non-negligible propagation delay.

The next generation (NG) wireless networks are expected to provide mobile users with the real-time multimedia services. High sensitivity to time constraints like delay and jitter is one of the important characteristics of the multimedia traffic. In order to maintain a certain quality of service (QoS) level, the handoff latency should be minimized. Furthermore, if the new cell is not ready at the actual handoff time, the handoff call may be even forced terminated. Hence, the handoff preparation latency directly affects the performance of the cellular networks in terms of QoS support and the handoff blocking probability. In this paper, we present the expected visitor list (EVL) method to achieve reduced handoff blocking probability and maintain a certain QoS level in the network by minimizing handoff preparation latency. The handoff signaling decomposition is introduced to make the neighbor cells aware of the resource demands and QoS requirements of the mobile terminal before the actual handoff time. The obtained information about the prospective active mobile terminal is stored in an EVL entry at the neighbor cells. The call admission control (CAC) with QoS-provisioning is run against each EVL entry. According to the CAC result, the network preparation algorithms are executed and the results are stored in the entry. No resource reservation or allocation is performed in advance, and the varying network conditions are reflected to validity and admission status of the entries. The results of handoff preparation algorithms stored in the EVL entry are activated at the actual handoff time and hence the handoff latency is minimized. Performance evaluation through mathematical analysis and extensive simulation experiments show that the EVL method reduces handoff latency and hence handoff call blocking probability significantly without introducing high overhead.Özgür B.

We consider the problem of transmission scheduling of data over a wireless fading channel with hard deadline constraints.
Our system consists of N users, each with a fixed amount of data that must be served by a common deadline. Given that, for each user, the channel
fade state determines the throughput per unit of energy expended, our objective is to minimize the overall expected energy
consumption while satisfying the deadline constraint. We consider both a linear and a strictly convex rate-power curve and
obtain optimal solutions, based on dynamic programming (DP), and tractable approximate heuristics in both cases. For the special
non-fading channel case with convex rate-power curve, an optimal solution is obtained based on the Shortest Path formulation.
In the case of a linear rate-power curve, our DP solution has a nice “threshold” form; while for the convex rate-power curve
we are able to obtain a heuristic algorithm with comparable performance with that of the optimal scheduling scheme.

Call dropping is considered more annoying than call blocking in wireless cellular networks. The cost of the classical method of employing guard channels to decrease the call dropping rate is the increase in call blocking rate. Since subscriber mobility changes in time, the number of handoff attempts in each cell is subject to fluctuations, making static assignments (or periodical update) of a given number of guard channels inefficient. In this paper, we propose an adaptive scheme that employs reservations, instead of static assignments, to adaptively adjust the number of guard channels in each cell according to the current requirements. Thus, unnecessary allocation of guard channels is avoided resulting in a lower cost in terms of call dropping. The reservation requests are made according to the recent mobility pattern of the subscriber. A likelihood value is associated with each reservation request so that fewer channels are reserved by benefiting from the statistical accumulation of the requests. The channels are reserved by considering the interference that would be created once they are in use. The proposed scheme is evaluated against the classical guard channel scheme with a realistic mobility model.This author is currently associated with Georgia Institute of Technology-Regional Engineering Program (GTREP).Tuna Tugcu received his B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in computer engineering from Bogazici University in 1993 and 2001, respectively, M.S. degree from New Jersey Institute of Technology in 1994.
