User Location Service over an 802.11 Ad-Hoc Network

چکیده
User location service for context-aware applications in wireless network is of great academia and industry interest, many research efforts were spent on obtaining location information within wireless network. This paper presents a different approach of determining location information. The location information is obtained over an ad-hoc wireless network, using IEEE 802.11 protocol. A triangulation method is described based on an empirical radio propagation model. Evaluations of both the propagation model and the triangulation method are conducted with

A Hidden Node Aware Network Allocation Vector Management System for Multi-hop Wireless Ad hoc Networks
Many performance evaluations for IEEE 802.11distributed coordination function (DCF) have been previouslyreported in the literature. Some of them have clearly indicatedthat 802.11 MAC protocol has poor performance in multi-hopwireless ad hoc networks due to exposed and hidden nodeproblems. Although RTS/CTS transmission scheme mitigatesthese phenomena, it has not been successful in thoroughlyomit...
متن کاملNetwork-Layer Resource Allocation for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
This thesis contributes toward the design of a quality-of-service (QoS) aware network layer for wireless ad hoc networks. With the lack of an infrastructure in ad hoc networks, the role of the network layer is not only to perform multihop routing between a source node and a destination node, but also to establish an end-to-end connection between communicating peers that satisfies the service le...
متن کاملThe Feedback Based Mechanism for Video Streaming Over Multipath Ad Hoc Networks
Ad hoc networks are multi-hop wireless networks without a pre-installed infrastructure. Such networks are widely used in military applications and in emergency situations as they permit the establishment of a communication network at very short notice with a very low cost. Video is very sensitive for packet loss and wireless ad-hoc networks are error prone due to node mobility and weak links. H...
متن کاملPerformance analysis of multipath transmission over 802.11-based multihop ad hoc networks: a cross-layer perspective
Data transmission in ad hoc networks involves interactions between medium access control (MAC)-layer protocols and data forwarding along network-layer paths. These interactions have been shown to have a significant impact on the performance of a system. This impact on multipath data transmission over multihop IEEE 802.11 MAC-based ad hoc networks is assessed; analysis is from a cross-layer pers...
متن کاملReal-time Transmission of H.264 Video over 802.11-based Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
The paper aims at evaluating a number of Quality of Service (QoS) indices of a real-time video transmission over an 802.11 ad hoc wireless network. Video is coded according to the state-of-the-art ITU-T H.264 encoder and its transmission is simulated by means of the ns network simulator. Objective quality measurements are presented. Moreover, the impact of different parameters, both at the enco...
