We present a minimum spanning tree based energy aware multicast protocol (MSTEAM), which is a localized geographic multicast routing scheme designed for ad hoc and sensor networks. It uses locally-built minimum spanning trees (MST) as an efficient approxim ...
We consider the problem of broadcasting in an ad hoc wireless network, where all nodes of the network are sources that want to transmit information to all other nodes. Our figure of merit is energy efficiency, a critical design parameter for wireless net- ...
Energy-detection is appealing for IEEE 802.15.4a receivers as it allows to exploit the ranging capabilities and the multipath resistance of impulse-radio UWB at a reasonable complexity. IEEE 802.15.4a receivers operate with interference created by uncontro ...
Application Layer Forward Error Correction (AL-FEC) is an innovative way to provide reliability in mobile broadcast systems. Conventional data such as multimedia files or multimedia streams are extended with repair information which can be used to recover ...
We consider streaming of pre-encoded and packetized media over best-effort networks in presence of acknowledgment feedbacks. We first review the rate-distortion optimization framework in such scenarios. Given an estimation of future transmission resources, ...
This paper addresses the problem of distortion modeling for video transmission over burst-loss channels characterized by a finite state Markov chain. Based on a detailed analysis of the error propagation and the bursty losses, a Distortion Trellis model is ...
We address the problem of joint path selection and video source rate allocation in multipath streaming in order to optimize a media specific quality of service. An optimization problem is proposed, which aims at minimizing a video distortion metric based o ...
Acoustic echo control and noise suppression is an important part of any "handsfree" telecommunication system, such as telephony or audio or video conferencing systems. Bandwidth and computational complexity constraints have prevented that stereo or multi-c ...
The problem of sampling signals that are not admisible within the classical Shannon framework has received much attention in the recent past. Typically, these signals have a parametric representation with a finite number of degrees of freedom per time unit ...
Energy-detection receivers are appealing to IEEE 802.15.4a low data-rate networks because of their low complexity. With a reasonable energy consumption, these receivers can exploit the ranging capabilities and multipath resistance of impulse-radio UWB (IR- ...
