Analysis and Enhancement of CSMA/CA With Deferral in Power-Line Communications

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen, Christina Vlachou

Power-line communications are employed in home networking to provide easy and high-throughput connectivity. The IEEE 1901, the MAC protocol for power-line networks, employs a CSMA/CA protocol similar to that of 802.11, but is substantially more complex, wh ...

Age of Information: The Gamma Awakening

Elie Najm, Rajai Nasser

Status update systems is an emerging field of study that is gaining interest in the information theory community. We consider a scenario where a monitor is interested in being up to date with respect to the status of some system which is not directly acces ...

Frugal Topology Construction for Stream Aggregation in the Cloud

Rachid Guerraoui, Rhicheek Patra, Bao Duy Tran

Aggregation of streamed data is key to the expansion of the Internet of Things. This paper addresses the problem of designing a topology for reliably aggregating data flows from many devices arriving at a datacenter. Reliability here means ensuring operati ...

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 ...

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 ...

Towards Unconditional Tor-Like Anonymity

Christina Fragouli, László Czap, Iris Safaka

We design and evaluate a traffic anonymization protocol for wireless networks, aiming to protect against computationally powerful adversaries. Our protocol builds on recent key-generation techniques, that leverage intrinsic properties of the wireless toget ...

Reconstruction of Network Coded Sources From Incomplete Datasets

Pascal Frossard, Nikolaos Thomos, Eirina Bourtsoulatze

We investigate the problem of recovering source information from an incomplete set of network coded data with help of prior information about the sources. This problem naturally arises in wireless networks, where the number of network coded packets availab ...

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 ...

CSMA/CA in Time and Frequency Domains

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen

It has recently been shown that flexible channelization, whereby wireless stations adapt their spectrum bands on a per-frame basis, is feasible in practice. In this paper, we propose TF-CSMA/CA, an algorithm for flexible channelization that schedules packe ...
