We focus on the optimization of real-time multimedia transmission over 802.11-based ad hoc networks. In particular, we propose a simple and efficient cross-layer mechanism that considers both the channel conditions and characteristics of the media for dyna ...
We propose a novel detection method for non-coherent synchronization in multi-access UWB impulse radio (IR) networks. It is designed to solve the IUI (Inter-User Interference) in particular the Near-Far scenario in the presence of concurrent UWB IR transmi ...
A relay strategy for Alamouti space-time coded transmissions is proposed. The relay structure is optimized to maximize the received SNR and the receiver is able to exploit the orthogonal structure of the code to ensure temporal and spatial diversity ...
In this dissertation, we consider wireless multi-hop networks, where the nodes are randomly placed. We are particularly interested in their asymptotic properties when the number of nodes tends to infinity. We use percolation theory as our main tool of anal ...
This paper describes a multi-relay strategy for wireless networks and examines the influence of imperfect channel information on system performance. A modified relay scheme is proposed to compensate for such imperfections. ...
We study the impact of interferences on the connectivity of large-scale ad-hoc networks, using percolation theory. We assume that a bi-directional connection can be set up between two nodes if the signal to noise ratio at the receiver is larger than some t ...
Due to environmental concerns and strict constraints on interference imposed on other networks, the radiated power of emerging pervasive wireless networks needs to be strictly limited, yet without sacrificing acceptable data rates. Pulsed Time-Hopping Ultr ...
We derive an information-theoretic upper bound on the rate per communication pair in a large ad hoc wireless network. We show that under minimal conditions on the attenuation due to the environment and for networks with a constant density of users, this ra ...
Although there has been much interest in scaling laws for wireless networks, most work has focussed on characterizing throughput and delay in power-constrained networks. Energy-constrained networks have not received much attention. Previous work on energy- ...
We present a new scheme that mimics pattern formation in biological systems to create transmission patterns in multi-hop ad hoc networks. Our scheme is decentralized and relies exclusively on local interactions between the network nodes to create global tr ...
