We determine the capacity of a particular large Gaussian relay network in the limit as the number of relays tends to infinity. The upper bounds follow from a cut-set argument, and the lower bound follows from an argument involving uncoded transmission. We ...
In this paper, we propose a power control strategy for distributed wireless networks by using a quadratic state-space control design. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed power control algorithm. ...
We propose FResher Encounter SearcH (FRESH), a simple algorithm for efficient route discovery in mobile ad hoc networks. Nodes keep a record of their most recent encounter times with all other nodes. Instead of searching for the destination, the source nod ...
We consider the issue of which criteria to use when evaluating the design of a wireless multihop network. It is known, and we illustrate in this paper, that maximizing the total capacity, or transport capacity, leads to gross imbalance and is not suitable. ...
Simulation and emulation are popular means for evaluating wireless Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) protocols. Since MANETs are highly dependant on their physical environment, these techniques offer only a partial understanding of factors that may influence ...
Ad-hoc networks are a key in the evolution of wireless networks. Ad-hoc networks are typically composed of equal nodes, which communicate over wireless links without any central control. Ad-hoc wireless networks inherit the traditional problems of wireless ...
The deployment of wireless applications or protocols in the context of Mobile Ad-hoc NETwork (MANET), often requires to step through a simulation phase. For the results of the simulation to be meaningful, it is important that the model on which is based th ...
We consider the problem of node positioning in ad hoc networks. We propose a distributed, infrastructure- free positioning algorithm that does not rely on GPS (Global Positioning System). Instead, the algorithm uses the distances between the nodes to build ...
