Wireless backhaul in future heterogeneous networks

Energy-efficient protocols for wireless networks with adaptive MIMO capabilities

Transmission power control has been used in wireless networks to improve the channel reuse and/or reduce energy consumption. It has been mainly applied to single-input single-output (SISO) systems, where each node is equipped with a single antenna. In this paper, we propose a power-controlled channel access protocol for MIMO-capable wireless LANs with two antennas per node. Our protocol, called...

An Efficient Wireless Backhaul Utilizing MIMO Transmission and IPT Forwarding

Wireless backhaul has been received much attention as an enabler of future broadband mobile communication systems because it can reduce deployment cost of pico-cells, an essential part of high capacity system. A high performance network, high throughput, low average delay and low packet loss rate, is highly Ehab, Kinoshita, Mitsunaga, Higa and Furukawa International Journal of Computer Networks...

Energy Efficient Design in Heterogeneous Cellular Networks

Energy efficiency has a vital role to mitigate increased power consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. Future wireless communication systems should be designed in such a way that energy efficiency as an important design rule. Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets) have recently being considered as an effective approach to provide better cellular network coverage and capacity. In the proposed system...
