Cross-Layer Energy-Efficiency Optimization of Packet Based Wireless MIMO Communication Systems

Andreas Peter Burg, Georgios Karakonstantis, Carl Christian Sten Dominic Senning

Energy in today's short-range wireless communication is mostly spent on the analog-and digital hardware rather than on radiated power. Hence, purely information-theoretic considerations fail to achieve the lowest energy per information bit and the optimiza ...

CSMA/CA in Time and Frequency Domains

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen

It has recently been shown that flexible channelization, whereby wireless stations adapt their spectrum bands on a per-frame basis, is feasible in practice. In this paper, we propose TF-CSMA/CA, an algorithm for flexible channelization that schedules packe ...

Prioritized Random MAC Optimization via Graph-based Analysis

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni

Motivated by the analogy between successive interference cancellation and iterative belief-propagation on erasure channels, irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) strategies have received a lot of attention in the design of medium access control protoco ...

Cross Layer Energy-Efficiency Optimization For Cognitive Radio Transceivers

Andreas Peter Burg, Carl Christian Sten Dominic Senning

Designing energy-efficient cognitive radio transceivers requires joint optimization of medium access control and the physical layer implementation. In this paper we show an energy efficiency optimization strategy for IEEE 802.11n compliant transceivers in ...

Network Coding Meets Multimedia: A Review

Pascal Frossard, Enrico Magli

While every network node only relays messages in a traditional communication system, the recent network coding (NC) paradigm proposes to implement simple in-network processing with packet combinations in the nodes. NC extends the concept of "encoding" a me ...

Bringing Stability to Wireless Mesh Networks

Adel Aziz

Wireless mesh networks were designed as a mean to rapidly deliver large-scale communication capabilities without the support of any prior infrastructure. Among the different properties of mesh networks, the self-organizing feature is particularly interesti ...

GridVine: an Infrastructure for Peer Information Management

Karl Aberer, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux

GridVine is a semantic overlay infrastructure based on a peer-to-peer (P2P) access structure. Built following the principle of data independence, it separates a logical layer — in which data, schemas, and schema mappings are managed — from a physical layer ...

Self-Organizing Schema Mappings in the GridVine Peer Data Management System

Karl Aberer, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux, Parisa Haghani, Adriana Budura

GridVine is a Peer Data Management System based on a decentralized access structure. Built following the principle of data independence, it separates a logical layer -- where data, schemas and mappings are managed -- from a physical layer consisting of a s ...

Diversity-Multiplexing-Delay Tradeoff in Half-Duplex ARQ Relay Channels

Sanket Dusad, Tarik Tabet

In this paper, we present an efficient protocol for the delay-limited fading ARQ single relay half duplex channel. The source is using an ARQ retransmission protocol to send data to the relay and the destination. When the relay is able to decode, both the ...

Modelling the IEEE 802.11 protocol in wireless multi-hop networks

Mathilde Durvy

IEEE 802.11 is probably the most widely used, medium access control protocol in current wireless networks. In the Wireless LAN (i.e., single-hop) setting, its performance is by now quite well understood. However, in the multi-hop setting where relay nodes ...

Emergent semantics : rethinking interoperability for large scale decentralized information systems

Philippe Cudré-Mauroux

In the past, the problem of semantic interoperability in information systems was mostly solved by means of centralization, both at a system and at a logical level. This approach has been successful to a certain extent, but offers limited scalability and fl ...

Understanding the Gap between the IEEE 802.11 Protocol Performance and the Theoretical Limits

Patrick Thiran, Mathilde Durvy

The ability of the IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol to perform well in multi-hop ad hoc networks has been recently questioned. We observe levels of spatial reuse that are 30% to 50% away from the theoretical limit. The goal of this paper is ...

A Packing Approach to Compare Slotted and Non-Slotted Medium Access Control

Patrick Thiran, Mathilde Durvy

In multi-hop ad hoc networks, the efficiency of a medium access control protocol under heavy traffic load depends mainly on its ability to schedule a large number of simultaneous non-interfering transmissions. However, as each node has only a local view of ...

SensorScope: Experiences with a Wireless Building Monitoring Sensor Network

Martin Vetterli, Henri Julien Dubois-Ferrière, Thomas Schmid

This paper reports on our experience with the implementation, deployment, and operation of SensorScope, an indoor environmental monitoring network. Nodes run on standard TinyOS components and use B-MAC for the MAC layer implementation. The main component o ...

Achievable Diversity-Multiplexing-Delay Tradeoff in Half-Duplex ARQ Relay Channels

Sanket Dusad, Tarik Tabet

In this paper, we present an efficient protocol for the delay-limited fading Automatic Retransmission reQuest single relay channel. The source is using an ARQ retransmission protocol to send data to the relay and the destination. When the relay is able to ...
