Energy efficiency aware dynamic rate and power adaptation in carrier sensing based WLANs under Rayleigh fading and shadowing

We consider the problem of energy efficiency aware dynamic adaptation of data transmission rate and transmission power of the users in carrier sensing based Wireless Local Area Networks(WLANs)in the presence of path loss,Rayleigh fading and log-normal shadowing.For a data packet transmission,we formulate an optimization problem,solve the problem,and propose a rate and transmission power adaptation scheme with a restriction methodology of data packet transmission for achieving the optimal energy efficiency.In the restriction methodology of data packet transmission,a user does not transmit a data packet if the instantaneous channel gain of the user is lower than a threshold.To evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme,we develop analytical models for computing the throughput and energy efficiency of WLANs under the proposed scheme considering a saturation traffic condition.We then validate the analytical models via simulation.We find that the proposed scheme provides better throughput and energy efficiency with acceptable throughput fairness if the restriction methodology of data packet transmission is included.By means of the analytical models and simulations,we demonstrate that the proposed scheme provides significantly higher throughput,energy efficiency and fairness index than a traditional non-adaptive scheme and an existing most relevant adaptive scheme.Throughput and energy efficiency gains obtained by the proposed scheme with respect to the existing adapting scheme are about 75%and 103%,respectively,for a fairness index of 0.8.We also study the effect of various system parameters on throughput and energy efficiency and provide various engineering insights.

A New Strategy for Dynamic Channel Allocation in CR-WMN Based on RCA

Channel assignment has emerged as an essential study subject in Cognitive Radio-basedWireless Mesh Networks(CR-WMN).In an era of alarming increase in Multi-Radio Multi-Channel(MRMC)network expansion interference is decreased and network throughput is significantly increased when non-overlapping or partially overlapping channels are correctly integrated.Because of its ad hoc behavior,dynamic channel assignment outperforms static channel assignment.Interference reduces network throughput in the CR-WMN.As a result,there is an extensive research gap for an algorithm that dynamically distributes channels while accounting for all types of interference.This work presents a method for dynamic channel allocations using unsupervisedMachine Learning(ML)that considers both coordinated and uncoordinated interference.Unsupervised machine learning uses coordinated and non-coordinated interference for dynamic channel allocation.To determine the applicability of the proposed strategy in reducing channel interference while increasingWMNthroughput,a comparison analysis was performed.When the simulation results of our proposed algorithm are compared to those of the Routing Channel Assignment(RCA)algorithm,the throughput of our proposed algorithm has increased by 34%compared to both coordinated and non-coordinated interferences.

Using CSMA/CD for Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON)

Using CSMA/CD for EPON can eliminate the augmentations, such as multi-point control protocol and point-to-point emulation, added to the existing 802.3 architecture due to the incompatibility of PON to Ethernet. Both full-duplex EPON system and half-duplex EPON system using CSMA/CD were proposed. In the full-duplex EPON, CSMA/CD is used as the upstream MAC protocol. In the half-duplex EPON system, both upstream and downstream traffic contend for the optical channel through CSMA/CD protocol. The upstream lightwave redirection and collision detection techniques were given. By the analysis and simulation, the throughput performance of the half-duplex EPON system is proven to be as well as that of the existing high speed half-duplex Ethernet LAN.

Modeling and Simulation of P-Aloha,CSMA /CA and MACAW Protocols for Underwater Acoustic Channel

Medium access control( MAC) protocol of underwater acoustic communication network is a key technology for underwater acoustic networks( UANs). Most of the MAC protocols for wireless terrestrial communication networks have been designed with negligible propagation delay. If it is deployed directly in an underwater environment,the UANs will perform inefficiently. In this paper,the characteristics of underwater acoustic channel are modeled and simulated by using the OPNET simulation tool,which are the speed of sound, propagation loss, and four sources for ambient noise: the turbulence,shipping,wind driven waves and thermal noise. The performance of pure Aloha( P-Aloha),carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance( CSMA / CA) and multiple access collision avoidance for wireless local area network( MACAW) protocols in underwater acoustic channel environment are evaluated. The different performance of protocols in underwater environment is compared in the simulation.

AN IMPROVED CHANNEL DETECTION METHOD FOR IEEE 802.11N MIMO SYSTEM

Coexistence and interoperability between 20 MHz and 40 MHz device and modes of op-erations are stressed in standard IEEE 802.11n system.It is mandate to report the both sub-channels states to Medium Access Control(MAC) at receiver,since for 40 MHz device,it should serve not only 20 MHz but also 40 MHz signals receiving.Both energy detection and carrier sense are employed to detect channel state.In the case of 20/40 M mode,the power difference between the two sub-channels is also detected in order to report the channel state accurately.The simulation results demonstrate that the performance of the proposed methods are much better than the methods which just employ energy detection.Besides,the simulation results show that the proposed methods ensure that the channel sensing is not a roadblock of IEEE 802.11n system design.

Distributed link scheduling method with physical interference model in wireless multi-hop networks

To further increase the throughput of wireless multi-hop networks,a distributed scheduling method is proposed,which takes physical interference model into account.It is assumed that nodes in the network can perform physical carrier sensing,and the carrier sensing range can be set to different values.In the traditional carrier sensing mechanism,the carrier sensing range is computed under the protocol interference model,which is not accurate.Here the optimal carrier sensing range with physical interference model is achieved.Each sending node implements the distributed approach in three phases at each time slot,and all the concurrent transmissions are interference free.Good performance can be achieved under this scheduling approach.The approximation ratio of the distributed method to the optimal one is also proved.

Analysis of Multi-Channel and Slotted Random Multi-Access Protocol with Two-Dimensional Probability for Ad Hoc Network

A higher quality of service （QoS） is provided for ad hoc networks through a multi-channel and slotted random multi-access （MSRM） protocol with two-dimensional probability. For this protocol, the system time is slotted into a time slot with high channel utilization realized by the choice of two parameters p1 and p2, and the channel load equilibrium. The protocol analyzes the throughput of the MSRM protocol for a load equilibrium state and the throughput based on priority. Simulations agree with the theoretical analysis. The simulations also show that the slotted-time system is better than the continuous-time system.
