Analysis of a TDMA MAC Protocol for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks under Multipath Fading Channels
نویسندگان
چکیده
The behavior of MAC protocols for wireless ad hoc networks is conditioned by multipath fading, especially with regard to the links stability and the differences between channel errors and collisions due to interference. In this paper, we evaluate the impact of multipath fading on the performance of a TDMA proposal designed to provide QoS in wireless ad hoc networks. It lies in a frame subdivision that consists of a broadcast control phase and an information phase. We propose modifications to guarantee the reliability and efficiency of both broadcast control and data services.

Evaluation of a BIBD Based Directional MAC Protocol for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
The use of directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks can significantly improve global performance due to a high spatial channel reuse. Nevertheless, its introduction poses new location dependent problems related to the MAC protocol. In this paper, the Balanced Incomplete Block Design theory has been exploited to develop a new MAC protocol for wireless ad hoc networks using directional ant...
متن کاملA QoS Ad Hoc On Demand Multi-path Distance Vector Routing Protocol (QAOMDV) over a Distributed TDMA MAC Protocol for Ad Hoc Networks
This paper focuses on the problem of QoS multi-path in wireless ad hoc networks. An integration of a novel multi-path routing protocol and a distributed Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) MAC protocol is proposed. The MAC considered is called Evolutionary TDMA (E-TDMA) and the analysed multi-path routing protocol is the Ad Hoc On Demand multi-path Distance Vector (AOMDV) protocol. The integra...

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...

In recent years, routing has been the most focused area in ad hoc networks research. On-demand routing in particular, is widely developed in bandwidth constrained mobile wireless ad hoc networks because of its effectiveness and efficiency. Most proposed on-demand routing protocols are built and relied on single route for each data session. Whenever there is a link disconnection on the active ro...
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...
