Joint Cooperation and Multi-Hopping Increase the Capacity of Wireless Networks

چکیده
The problem of communication among nodes in an extended network is considered, where radio power decay and interference are limiting factors. It has been shown previously that, with simple multi-hopping, the achievable total communication rate in such a network is at most Θ( √ N). In this work, we study the benefit of node cooperation in conjunction with multi-hopping on the network capacity. We propose a multi-phase communication scheme, combining distributed MIMO transmission with multi-hop forwarding among clusters of nodes. We derive the network throughput of this communication scheme and determine the optimal cluster size. This provides a constructive lower bound on the network capacity. We first show that in regular networks a rate of ω(N 2 3 ) can be achieved with transmission power scaling of Θ(N α 6 − 1 3 ), where α > 2 is the signal path-loss exponent. We further extend this result to random networks, where we show a rate of ω ` N 2 3 (logN) 2−α 6 ́ can be achieved with transmission power scaling of Θ(N α 6 − 1 3 (logN)− (α−2)2 6 ) in a random network with unit node density. In particular, as α approaches 2, only constant transmission power is required. Finally, we study a random network with density λ = Ω(logN) and show that a rate of ω((λN) 2 3 ) is achieved and the required power scales as Θ( α 6 − 1 3

متن کاملModeling Cooperation between Nodes in Wireless Networks by APD Game
Cooperation is the foundation of many protocols in wireless networks. Without cooperation, the performance of a network significantly decreases. Hence, all nodes in traditional networks are required to cooperate with each other. In this paper, instead of traditional networks, a network of rational and autonomous nodes is considered, which means that each node itself can decide whe...
