Virtually Moving Base Stations for Energy Efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks

Martin Vetterli, Patrick Thiran, Runwei Zhang

Energy efficiency of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be improved by moving base stations (BSs), as this scheme evenly distributes the communication load in the network. However, physically moving BSs is complicated and costly. In this paper, we propose ...

Flexible Spectrum Assignment for Local Wireless Networks

Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen

In this dissertation, we consider the problem of assigning spectrum to wireless local-area networks (WLANs). In line with recent IEEE 802.11 amendments and newer hardware capabilities, we consider situations where wireless nodes have the ability to adapt n ...

Efficient Key Exchange for Wireless Multi-hop Networks

Christina Fragouli, László Czap, Iris Safaka

We present a protocol that enables to create pairwise keys between nodes in a wireless network, so that the keys are secure from an adversary, Eve, with unbounded computational and memory capabilities, but with limited network presence. Our proposed protoc ...

Interactive Computation of Type-Threshold Functions in Collocated Gaussian Networks

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Chien-Yi Wang

In wireless sensor networks, various applications involve learning one or multiple functions of the measurements observed by sensors, rather than the measurements themselves. This paper focuses on the class of type-threshold functions, e.g., the maximum an ...
