Cross-Layer Schemes For Reducing Delay In Multihop Wireless Networks, Maggie Xiaoyan Cheng, Quanmin Ye, Lin Cai Dec 2012

Cross-Layer Schemes For Reducing Delay In Multihop Wireless Networks, Maggie Xiaoyan Cheng, Quanmin Ye, Lin Cai

Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works

End-to-end delay is an important QoS metric in multihop wireless networks such as sensor networks and mesh networks. End-to-end delay is defined as the total time it takes for a single packet to reach the destination. It is a result of many factors including the length of the route and the interference level along the path. in this paper we address how to minimize end-to-end delay jointly through optimizing routing and link layer scheduling. We present two cross-layer schemes, a loosely coupled cross-layer scheme and a tightly coupled cross-layer scheme. in the loosely coupled cross-layer scheme, routing is computed first …
