Adaptive Scalable Protocols For Heterogeneous Wireless Networks, Vamsi Krishna Paruchuri
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
The focus of this dissertation is to propose analytical models to study the impact of collisions and interference in heterogeneous wireless networks and propose simple scalable and lightweight protocols that use these models to adapt to network conditions thus increasing efficiency, decreasing energy consumption and prolonging network lifetime. The contributions of this dissertation are multifold and are summarized as follows: - Analytical models to study the impact of collisions and interference on both broadcast and unicast messages. These analytical models are incorporated into the proposed protocols to adapt to the prevailing network conditions to improve their performance. - Optimized Flooding …
