Implementation and performance measurement and analysis of OLSR protocol

Creator:: Sinky, Hassan Hussein
Abstract:: This paper provides a measurement-based performance evaluation of the Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol. Two versions of OLSR, OLSR-ETX and OLSR-ETT, are implemented and evaluated on a mesh network that we built from off-the-shelf commercial components. OLSR-ETX uses the Expected Transmission Count (ETX) metric whereas, OLSR-ETT uses the Expected...

iMAC : improved medium access control for multi-channel multi-hop wireless networks

Creator:: Maiya, Megha
Abstract:: Trends in wireless networks are increasingly pointing towards a future with multi-hop networks deployed in multi-channel environments. In this thesis, we present the design for iMAC—a protocol targeted at medium access control in such environments. iMAC uses control packets on a common control channel to faciliate a three-way handshake between...

Opportunistic bandwidth sharing through reinforcement learning

Creator:: Venkatraman, Pavithra
Abstract:: The enormous success of wireless technology has recently led to an explosive demand for, and hence a shortage of, bandwidth resources. This expected shortage problem is reported to be primarily due to the inefficient, static nature of current spectrum allocation methods. As an initial step towards solving this shortage problem,...

Enhancing macrocell downlink performance through femtocell user cooperation

Creator:: Zaid, Adem Mabruk
Abstract:: This thesis studies cooperative techniques that rely on femtocell user diversity to improve the downlink communication quality of macrocell users. We analytically analyze and evaluate the achievable performance of these techniques in the downlink of Rayleigh fading channels. We provide an approximation of both the bit-error rate (BER) and the...

End-to-end network throughput enhancement through physical-layer network coding

Creator:: Maeouf, Sofean Ahmed
Abstract:: Physical-Layer Network Coding (PNC) is a promising technique that has great potentials for improving the achievable data rates of end-to-end flows through higher packet transmission rates, thereby increasing the overall network throughput. In this thesis, we study the performance of the PNC transmission techniques for unidirectional end-to-end flows in multi-hop...

EM-MAC : an energy-aware multi-channel medium access control protocol for multi-hop wireless networks

Creator:: Sivanantha, Akhil
Abstract:: The stupendous growth in wireless and mobile devices in the recent years has prompted researchers to look at innovative approaches that enable effective use of the available resources. In this thesis, we propose a medium access control (MAC) protocol, referred to as EM-MAC, that enables wireless devices with multi-channel access...

Resource allocation methods for quality-of-service provisioning in heterogeneous wireless networks

Creator:: Chakchouk, Nessrine
Abstract:: The increased use of mobile wireless devices that we have recently been witnessing, such as smartphones, tablets, e-readers, and WiFi enabled devices in general, is driving an unprecedented increase in the amount of data traffic. This fast market adoption of the wireless technology along with the tremendous success of multimedia...

Coordinating secondary-user behaviors for inelastic traffic reward maximization in large-scale DSA networks

Creator:: NoroozOliaee, MohammadJavad
Abstract:: We develop efficient coordination techniques that support inelastic traffic in large-scale distributed dynamic spectrum access DSA networks. By means of any learning algorithm, the proposed techniques enable DSA users to locate and exploit spectrum opportunities effectively, thereby increasing their achieved throughput (or "rewards" to be more general). Basically, learning algorithms...

Cross-layer aware routing approach for lifetime maximization in wireless sensor networks with multiple sinks

Creator:: Hamid, Arwa Zakaria
Abstract:: In wireless sensor networks (WSNs) nodes are battery powered. Therefore, the available energy resources of sensor nodes should be managed efficiently in order to increase the network lifetime. As a result, researchers have proposed routing schemes in order to maximize network lifetime. Even though these schemes increase the network lifetime,...
