So far, the problem of positioning in wireless networks has been mainly studied in a non-adversarial setting. In this work, we analyze the resistance of positioning techniques to position and distance spoofing attacks. We propose a mechanism for secure pos ...
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. ...
Wireless communication today supports heterogeneous wireless devices with a number of different wireless network interfaces (WNICs). A large fraction of communication is infrastructure based, so the wireless access points and hotspot servers have become mo ...
In this paper we propose a novel location management scheme tailored for multicasting in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs). We furthermore propose AMDLM, a location-based multicast algorithm relying on the location management service. Such an approach avoids ...
There is a fundamental tradeoff between power consumption, data transmission rates, and congestion levels in a wireless network. These three elements influence the performance of rate and power control strategies, and they need to be coordinated judiciousl ...
Energy efficiency, i.e., the amount of battery energy consumed to transmit bits across a wireless link, is a critical design parameter for wireless ad-hoc networks. We examine the problem of broadcasting information to all nodes in an ad-hoc network, when ...
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 ...
Wireless location refers to the geographic coordinates of a mobile subscriber in cellular or wireless local area network (WLAN) environments. Wireless location finding has emerged as an essential public safety feature of cellular systems in response to an ...
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- ...
