Probabilistic Approaches To The Design Of Wireless Ad Hoc And Sensor Networks, Zhen Guo Jan 2006

Probabilistic Approaches To The Design Of Wireless Ad Hoc And Sensor Networks, Zhen Guo

Dissertations

The emerging wireless technologies has made ubiquitous wireless access a reality and enabled wireless systems to support a large variety of applications. Since the wireless self-configuring networks do not require infrastructure and promise greater flexibility and better coverage, wireless ad hoc and sensor networks have been under intensive research. It is believed that wireless ad hoc and sensor networks can become as important as the Internet. Just as the Internet allows access to digital information anywhere, ad hoc and sensor networks will provide remote interaction with the physical world.

Dynamics of the object distribution is one of the most important …


Efficient Resource Allocation And Call Admission Control In High Capacity Wireless Networks, Jiongkuan Hou May 2003

Efficient Resource Allocation And Call Admission Control In High Capacity Wireless Networks, Jiongkuan Hou

Dissertations

Resource Allocation (RA) and Call Admission Control (CAC) in wireless networks are processes that control the allocation of the limited radio resources to mobile stations (MS) in order to maximize the utilization efficiency of radio resources and guarantee the Quality of Service (QoS) requirements of mobile users. In this dissertation, several distributed, adaptive and efficient RA/CAC schemes are proposed and analyzed, in order to improve the system utilization while maintaining the required QoS.

Since the most salient feature of the mobile wireless network is that users are moving, a Mobility Based Channel Reservation (MBCR) scheme is proposed which takes the …
