The proper functioning of mobile ad hoc networks depends on the hypothesis that each individual node is ready to forward packets
for others. This common assumption, however, might be undermined by the existence of selfish users who are reluctant to act
as packet relays in order to save their own resources. Such non-cooperative behavior would cause the sharp degradation of
network throughput. To address this problem, we propose a credit-based Secure Incentive Protocol (SIP) to stimulate cooperation
among mobile nodes with individual interests. SIP can be implemented in a fully distributed way and does not require any pre-deployed
infrastructure. In addition, SIP is immune to a wide range of attacks and is of low communication overhead by using a Bloom
filter. Detailed simulation studies have confirmed the efficacy and efficiency of SIP.

The convergence of heterogeneous wireless access technologies has been envisioned to characterize the next generation wireless
networks. In such converged systems, the seamless and efficient handoff between different access technologies (vertical handoff)
is essential and remains a challenging problem. The heterogeneous co-existence of access technologies with largely different
characteristics results in handoff asymmetry that differs from the traditional intra-network handoff (horizontal handoff)
problem. In the case where one network is preferred, the vertical handoff decision should be carefully executed, based on
the wireless channel state, network layer characteristics, as well as application requirements. In this paper, we study the
performance of vertical handoff using the integration of 3G cellular and wireless local area networks as an example. In particular,
we investigate the effect of an application-based signal strength threshold on an adaptive preferred-network lifetime-based
handoff strategy, in terms of the signalling load, available bandwidth, and packet delay for an inter-network roaming mobile.
We present an analytical framework to evaluate the converged system performance, which is validated by computer simulation.
We show how the proposed analytical model can be used to provide design guidelines for the optimization of vertical handoff
in the next generation integrated wireless networks.

Probabilistic Power Management for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Extending system lifetime by effectively managing power on participating nodes is critical in wireless ad hoc networks. Recent work has shown that, by appropriately powering off nodes, energy may be significantly saved up to a factor of two, especially when node density is high. Such approaches rely on the selection of a virtual backbone (i.e., a connected dominating set) of the topology to forward ongoing traffic, coupled with algorithms to manually and periodically recompute such a backbone for load balancing purposes. The common drawback of such schemes is the need to involve periodic message exchanges and to make additional restrictive assumptions. This paper presents Odds1, an integrated set of energy-efficient and fully distributed algorithms for power management in wireless ad hoc networks. Odds build on the observation that explicit and periodic re-computation of the backbone topology is costly with respect to its additional bandwidth overhead, especially when nodes are densely populated or highly mobile. Building on a fully probabilistic approach, Odds seek to make a minimum overhead, perfectly balanced, and fully localized decision on each node with respect to when and how long it needs to enter standby mode to conserve energy. Such a decision does not rely on periodic message broadcasts in the local neighborhood, so that Odds are scalable as node density increases. Detailed mathematical analysis, discussions and simulation results have shown that Odds are indeed able to achieve our objectives while operating in a wide range of density and traffic loads.Zongpeng Li received his B.Engr. in 1999, from Department of Computer Science and Technology, Tsinghua University, China, and his M.S. degree in 2001 from the Department of Computer Science, University of Toronto.

In this paper, we study rate allocation for a set of end-to-end communication sessions in multi-radio wireless mesh networks.
We propose cross-layer schemes to solve the joint rate allocation, routing, scheduling, power control and channel assignment
problems with the goals of maximizing network throughput and achieving certain fairness. Fairness is addressed using both
a simplified max-min fairness model and the well-known proportional fairness model. Our schemes can also offer performance
upper bounds such as an upper bound on the maximum throughput. Numerical results show that our proportional fair rate allocation
scheme achieves a good tradeoff between throughput and fairness.

This paper presents an analytical model for evaluating the statistical multiplexing effect, admission region, and contention
window design in multiclass wireless local area networks (WLANs). We consider distributed medium access control (MAC) which
provisions service differentiation by assigning different contention windows to different classes. Mobile nodes belonging
to different classes may have heterogeneous traffic arrival processes with different quality of service (QoS) requirements.
With bursty input traffic, e.g. on/off sources, our analysis shows that the WLAN admission region under the QoS constraint
can be significantly improved, when the statistical multiplexing effect is taken into account. We also analyze the MAC resource
sharing between the short-range dependent (SRD) on/off sources and the long-range dependent (LRD) fractional Brownian motion
(FBM) traffic, where the impact of the Hurst parameter on the admission region is investigated. Moveover, we demonstrate that
the proper selection of contention windows plays an important role in improving the WLAN’s QoS capability, while the optimal
contention window for each class and the maximum admission region can be jointly solved in our analytical model. The analysis
accuracy and the resource utilization improvement from statistical multiplexing gain and contention window optimization are
demonstrated by extensive numerical results.

Exploiting Mobility for Energy Efficient Data Collection in Wireless Sensor Networks 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2

We analyze an architecture based on mobility to address the problem of energy efficient data collection in a sensor network.
Our approach exploits mobile nodes present in the sensor field as forwarding agents. As a mobile node moves in close proximity
to sensors, data is transferred to the mobile node for later depositing at the destination. We present an analytical model
to understand the key performance metrics such as data transfer, latency to the destination, and power. Parameters for our
model include: sensor buffer size, data generation rate, radio characteristics, and mobility patterns of mobile nodes. Through
simulation we verify our model and show that our approach can provide substantial savings in energy as compared to the traditional
ad-hoc network approach.

Future mobile handsets will often be multi-mode, containing both wireless LAN (WLAN) and cellular air interfaces. When such a device is within a WLAN it can be served by the WLAN resources. As it moves out of the WLAN coverage area, it has to be served by the cellular system. Therefore, handoffs are necessary between the WLAN and the cellular system. In loosely coupled WLAN/Cellular systems the system administrator of the WLAN is different from the cellular one. Therefore, in these situations, reducing the dropping probability based on classical methods, such as using some reserved guard channels, is difficult. In this paper, we propose to use ad hoc relaying during the vertical handoff process in a hybrid WLAN/Cellular system. The method that we propose in this paper improves the dropping probability regardless of the number of reserved channels. Therefore, this method could be employed in loosely coupled hybrid systems. Both analytical reasoning and simulation results support the effectiveness of the proposed method.

MANTIS OS: An Embedded Multithreaded Operating System for Wireless Micro Sensor Platforms 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The MANTIS MultimodAl system for NeTworks of In-situ wireless Sensors provides a new multithreaded cross-platform embedded operating system for wireless sensor networks. As sensor networks accommodate increasingly complex tasks such as compression/aggregation and signal processing, preemptive multithreading in the MANTIS sensor OS (MOS) enables micro sensor nodes to natively interleave complex tasks with time-sensitive tasks, thereby mitigating the bounded buffer producer-consumer problem. To achieve memory efficiency, MOS is implemented in a lightweight RAM footprint that fits in less than 500 bytes of memory, including kernel, scheduler, and network stack. To achieve energy efficiency, the MOS power-efficient scheduler sleeps the microcontroller after all active threads have called the MOS sleep() function, reducing current consumption to the μA range. A key MOS design feature is flexibility in the form of cross-platform support and testing across PCs, PDAs, and different micro sensor platforms. Another key MOS design feature is support for remote management of in-situ sensors via dynamic reprogramming and remote login.

A Development Environment for OSA-Based Applications over the Interworked WLAN and Cellular Networks
In this paper, we propose an OSA-based development environment for interworking WLAN and 3G cellular networks. The main goal
of our work is to establish and create an environment that can serve as a demonstration of a working network for OSA-based
application developers while featuring mobile services over the interworked LAN and 3G cellular networks. The proposed simulating
environment has (i) a location update scheme that is used to obtain mobile users' locations and status information over the
interworked WLAN and cellular networks, (ii) an instant message gateway (IMG) simulator that is developed to send and receive
generic messages over the interworked WLAN and cellular networks, and (iii) a mapping of Parlay APIs onto SIP signaling messages
for multiparty call applications over the interworked WLAN and cellular networks. An illustrated OSA-based application that
utilizes the corresponding system functions and modules is developed and verified using the proposed simulating environment.

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is characterized by multi-hop wireless links and frequent node mobility. Communication between non-neighboring nodes requires a multi-hop routing protocol to establish a route. But, the route often breaks due to mobility. The source must rediscover a new route for delivering the data packets. This wastes the resources that are limited in MANET. In this paper, a new on-demand routing protocol is proposed, named on-demand routing protocol with backtracking (ORB), for multi-hop mobile ad hoc networks. We use the multiple routes and cache data technique to reduce the rediscovery times and overhead. After executing the route discovery phase, we find out a set of nodes, named checkpoint, which has the multiple routes to the destination. When a checkpoint node receives a data packet, it caches this data packet in its buffer within a specific time period. When a node detects a broken route during the data packets delivery or receives an error packet, it will either recover the broken route or reply the error packet to the source. If a node can not forward the data packet to the next node, it replies an error packet to the source. This packet is backtracking to search a checkpoint to redeliver the data packet to the destination along other alternate routes. The main advantage of ORB is to reduce the flooding search times, maybe just delay and cost while a route has broken. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme can increase the performance of delivery but reduce the overhead efficiently comparing with that of AODV based routing protocols.

We propose an innovative resource management scheme for TDMA based mobile ad hoc networks. Since communications between some
important nodes in the network are more critical, they should be accepted by the network with high priority in terms of network
resource usage and quality of service (QoS) support. In this scheme, we design a location-aware bandwidth pre-reservation
mechanism, which takes advantage of each mobile node’s geographic location information to pre-reserve bandwidth for such high
priority connections and thus greatly reduces potential scheduling conflicts for transmissions. In addition, an end-to-end
bandwidth calculation and reservation algorithm is proposed to make use of the pre-reserved bandwidth. In this way, time slot
collisions among different connections and in adjacent wireless links along a connection can be reduced so that more high
priority connections can be accepted into the network without seriously hurting admissions of other connections. The salient
feature of our scheme is the collaboration between the routing and MAC layer that results in the more efficient spatial reuse
of limited resources, which demonstrates how cross-layer design leads to better performance in QoS support. Extensive simulations
show that our scheme can successfully provide better communication quality to important nodes at a relatively low price. Finally,
several design issues and future work are discussed.

In autonomous networks, cooperations among nodes cannot be assumed, since each node is capable of making independent decisions
based on their personal preferences. In particular, when a node needs the help of intermediate nodes to relay messages to
other nodes, these intermediaries may be reluctant to contribute their network resource for the benefit of others. Ideally,
the right amount of incentives should be provided to motivate cooperations among autonomous nodes so that a mutually beneficial
network results. In this paper, we leverage the power of mechanism design in microeconomics to design a distributed incentive mechanism that motivates each node towards a more desirable network topology.
Since network parameters and constraints change dynamically in reality, the desirable topology can vary over time. Our solution
presented in this paper has successfully encompassed such a dynamic nature of the network topology. In addition, we have transformed
our solution to an easy-to-implement distributed algorithm, that converges towards the globally optimal topology.

We study the performance of multiuser document prefetching in a two-tier heterogeneous wireless system. Mobility-aware prefetching
was previously introduced to enhance the experience of a mobile user roaming between heterogeneous wireless access networks.
However, an undesirable effect of multiple prefetching users is the potential for system instability due to the racing behavior
between the document access delay and the user prefetching quantity. This phenomenon is particularly acute in the heterogeneous
environment. We investigate into alleviating the system traffic load through prefetch thresholding, accounting for server
queuing prioritization. We propose a novel analysis framework to evaluate the performance of the thresholding approach. Numerical
and simulation results show that the proposed analysis is accurate for a wide variety of access, service, and mobility patterns.
We further demonstrate that stability can be maintained even under heavy usage, providing both the same scalability as a non-prefetching
system and the performance gain associated with prefetching.

By adjusting the transmission power of mobile nodes, topology control aims to reduce wireless interference, reduce energy consumption, and increase effective network capacity, subject to connectivity constraints. In this paper, we introduce the Ant-Based Topology Control (ABTC) algorithm that adapts the biological metaphor of Swarm Intelligence to control topology of mobile ad hoc networks. ABTC is a distributed algorithm where each node asynchronously collects local information from nearby nodes, via sending and receiving ant packets, to determine its appropriate transmission power. The operations of ABTC do not require any geographical location, angle-of-arrival, topology, or routing information, and are scalable. In particular, ABTC attempts to minimize the maximum power used by any node in the network, or minimize the total power used by all of the nodes in the network. By adapting swarm intelligence as an adaptive search mechanism, ABTC converges quickly to a good power assignment with respect to minimization objectives, and adapts well to mobility. In addition, ABTC may achieve common power, or properly assign power to nodes with non-uniform distribution. Results from a thorough comparative simulation study demonstrate the effectiveness of ABTC for different mobility speed, various density, and diverse node distributions.This work is supported in part by National Science Foundation under grant ANI-0240398.Chien-Chung Shen received his B.S. and M.S. degrees from National Chiao Tung University, Taiwan, and his Ph.D. degree from UCLA, all in computer science.

In this paper we consider vertical handoff for enterprise-based dual-mode (DM) cellular/WLAN handsets. When the handset roams
out of WLAN coverage, the DM's cellular interface is used to maintain the call by anchoring it through an enterprise PSTN
gateway/PBX. Soft handoff can be achieved in this case if the gateway supports basic conference bridging, since a new leg
of the call can be established to the conference bridge while the existing media stream path is active. Unfortunately this
requires that all intra-enterprise calls be routed through the gateway when the call is established. In this paper we consider
a SIP based architecture to perform conferenced dual-mode handoff and propose a much more scalable mechanism for short-delay
environments, whereby active calls are handed off into the conference bridge prior to the initiation of the vertical handoff.
Results are presented which are taken from a dual-mode handset testbed, from analytic models, and from simulations which characterize
the scalability of the proposed mechanism.

In this paper, we address the problem of user-class based service differentiation in CDMA networks. Users are categorized
into three classes who get differentiated services based on their expected quality of service (QoS) from the service provider
and the price they are willing to pay. We adopt a game theoretic approach for allocating resources through a two-step process.
During a service admission, resource distribution is determined for each class. Then, the resource allocated to each class
is distributed among the active users in that class. We devise a utility function for the providers which considers the expected
revenue and the probability of users leaving their service provider if they are not satisfied with the service. Our model
demonstrates how power can be controlled in a CDMA network to differentiate the service quality. Also, we show the impact
of admitting high paying users on other users.

Overlay networks have made it easy to implement multicast functionality in MANETs. Their flexibility to adapt to different
environments has helped in their steady growth. Overlay multicast trees that are built using location information account
for node mobility and have a low latency. However, the performance gains of such trees are offset by the overhead involved
in distributing and maintaining precise location information. As the degree of (location) accuracy increases, the performance
improves but the overhead required to store and broadcast this information also increases. In this paper, we present SOLONet,
a design to build a sub-optimal location aided overlay multicast tree, where location updates of each member node are event
based. Unlike several other approaches, SOLONet doesn’t require every packet to carry location information or each node maintain
location information of every other node or carrying out expensive location broadcast for each node. Our simulation results
indicate that SOLONet is scalable and its sub-optimal tree performs very similar to an overlay tree built by using precise
location information. SOLONet strikes a good balance between the advantages of using location information (for building efficient
overlay multicast trees) versus the cost of maintaining and distributing location information of every member nodes.

Traditional cellular networks provide a centralized wireless networking paradigm within the wireless domain with the help
of fixed infrastructure nodes such as Base Stations (BSs). On the other hand, Ad hoc wireless networks provide a fully distributed
wireless networking scheme with no dependency on fixed infrastructure nodes. Recent studies show that the use of multihop
wireless relaying in the presence of infrastructure based nodes improves system capacity of wireless networks. In this paper,
we consider three recent wireless network architectures that combine the multihop relaying with infrastructure support – namely
Integrated Cellular and Ad hoc Relaying (iCAR) system, Hybrid Wireless Network (HWN) architecture, and Multihop Cellular Networks
(MCNs), for a detailed qualitative and quantitative performance evaluation. MCNs use multihop relaying by the Mobile Stations
(MSs) controlled by the BS. iCAR uses fixed Ad hoc Relay Stations (ARSs) placed at the boundaries to relay excess traffic
from a hot cell to cooler neighbor cells. HWN dynamically switches its mode of operation between a centralized Cellular mode
and a distributed Ad hoc mode based on the throughput achieved. An interesting observation derived from these studies is that,
none of these architectures is superior to the rest, rather each one performs better in certain conditions. MCN is found to
be performing better than the other two architectures in terms of throughput, under normal traffic conditions. At very high
node densities, the variable power control employed in HWN architecture is found to be having a superior impact on the throughput.
The mobility of relay stations significantly influences the call dropping probability and control overhead of the system and
hence at high mobility iCAR which uses fixed ARSs is found to be performing better.

A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile computers forming a temporary network without any existing
wire line infrastructure. Searching for feasible paths, or routing, is very challenging in mobile ad hoc networks because
of frequent topology changes caused by users' mobility. Location information is required by some applications and can be used
to facilitate routing implementation. In this paper, we propose a proactive flow handoff method based on nodes' location information.
In summary, location information is utilised to reduce the control overhead in route discovery phase, to search quickly for
a feasible path upon link breakage, and to hand off a flow to a stable path if the active one breaks based on predication.
Keeping “always-on” end-to-end connectivity once a flow is established is the main advantage of this routing method. A thorough
simulation study is performed to demonstrate the efficiency of this method.

In order to conserve battery power in very dense sensor networks, some sensor nodes may be put into the sleep state while
other sensor nodes remain active for the sensing and communication tasks. In this paper, we study the node sleep scheduling
problem in the context of clustered sensor networks. We propose and analyze the Linear Distance-based Scheduling (LDS) technique
for sleeping in each cluster. The LDS scheme selects a sensor node to sleep with higher probability when it is farther away
from the cluster head. We analyze the energy consumption, the sensing coverage property, and the network lifetime of the proposed
LDS scheme. The performance of the LDS scheme is compared with that of the conventional Randomized Scheduling (RS) scheme.
It is shown that the LDS scheme yields more energy savings while maintaining a similar sensing coverage as the RS scheme for
sensor clusters. Therefore, the LDS scheme results in a longer network lifetime than the RS scheme.
