Efficient Broadcasting in Known Geometric Radio Networks with Non-uniform Ranges

by Leszek Gasieniec, Dariusz R. Kowalski, Andrzej Lingas, Martin Wahlen , 2008
"... We study here deterministic broadcasting in geometric radio networks (GRN) whose nodes have complete knowledge of the network. Nodes of a GRN are deployed in the Euclidean plane (R 2) and each of them can transmit within some range r assigned to it. We adopt model in which ranges of nodes are nonun ..."

Cognitive Radio: Brain-Empowered Wireless Communications

by Simon Haykin , 2005
"... Cognitive radio is viewed as a novel approach for improving the utilization of a precious natural resource: the radio electromagnetic spectrum. The cognitive radio, built on a software-defined radio, is defined as an intelligent wireless communication system that is aware of its environment and use ..."

and uses the methodology of understanding-by-building to learn from the environment and adapt to statistical variations in the input stimuli, with two primary objectives in mind: • highly reliable communication whenever and wherever needed; • efficient utilization of the radio spectrum. Following

An Energy-Efficient MAC Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

by Wei Ye, John Heidemann, Deborah Estrin , 2002
"... This paper proposes S-MAC, a medium-access control (MAC) protocol designed for wireless sensor networks. Wireless sensor networks use battery-operated computing and sensing devices. A network of these devices will collaborate for a common application such as environmental monitoring. We expect senso ..."

SEAD: Secure Efficient Distance Vector Routing for Mobile Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

by Yih-Chun Hu, David B. Johnson, Adrian Perrig , 2003
"... An ad hoc network is a collection of wireless computers (nodes), communicating among themselves over possibly multihop paths, without the help of any infrastructure such as base stations or access points. Although many previous ad hoc network routing protocols have been based in part on distance vec ..."

vector approaches, they have generally assumed a trusted environment. In this paper, we design and evaluate the Secure Efficient Ad hoc Distance vector routing protocol (SEAD), a secure ad hoc network routing protocol based on the design of the Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector routing protocol

An Adaptive Energy-Efficient MAC Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

by Tijs van Dam, Koen Langendoen - SENSYS'03 , 2003
"... In this paper we describe T-MAC, a contention-based Medium Access Control protocol for wireless sensor networks. Applications for these networks have some characteristics (low message rate, insensitivity to latency) that can be exploited to reduce energy consumption by introducing an active/sleep du ..."

Adaptive clustering for mobile wireless networks

by Chunhung Richard Lin, Mario Gerla - IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications , 1997
"... This paper describes a self-organizing, multihop, mobile radio network, which relies on a code division access scheme for multimedia support. In the proposed network architecture, nodes are organized into nonoverlapping clusters. The clusters are independently controlled and are dynamically reconfig ..."

Directed Diffusion for Wireless Sensor Networking

by Chalermek Intanagonwiwat, Ramesh Govindan, Deborah Estrin, John Heidemann, Fabio Silva - IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking , 2003
"... Advances in processor, memory and radio technology will enable small and cheap nodes capable of sensing, communication and computation. Networks of such nodes can coordinate to perform distributed sensing of environmental phenomena. In this paper, we explore the directed diffusion paradigm for such ..."

Predicting Internet Network Distance with Coordinates-Based Approaches

by T. S. Eugene Ng, Hui Zhang - In INFOCOM , 2001
"... In this paper, we propose to use coordinates-based mechanisms in a peer-to-peer architecture to predict Internet network distance (i.e. round-trip propagation and transmission delay) . We study two mechanisms. The first is a previously proposed scheme, called the triangulated heuristic, which is bas ..."

is based on relative coordinates that are simply the distances from a host to some special network nodes. We propose the second mechanism, called Global Network Positioning (GNP), which is based on absolute coordinates computed from modeling the Internet as a geometric space. Since end hosts maintain

Investigating the Energy Consumption of a Wireless Network Interface in an Ad Hoc Networking Environment
