Wireless Networks : Multiuser Detection in Cross-Layer Design
This unique monograph is concerned with the issue of cross-layer design in wireless networks, and more particularly with the impact of node-level multiuser detection on such design. It provides an introduction to this vibrant and active research area insufficiently covered in existing literature, presenting some of the principal methods developed and results obtained to date. Accompanied by numerous illustrations, the text is an excellent reference for engineers, researchers and students working in communication networks.
Wireless Mesh Networks : Architectures and Protocols
Wireless Mesh Networks provides a unified view of the state-of-the-art achievements in the area of protocols and architectures for wireless mesh networking (WMN) technology. With contributions from leading experts in the field, the book covers aspects of analysis, design, deployment, and optimization of protocols and architectures for WMNs. In particular, the topics include challenges and issues in designing architectures and protocols for WMNs, medium access control and routing protocols for WMNs, resource allocation and scheduling in WMNs, cost optimization in WMN nodes using energy harvesting technologies, cross-layer design for WMNs, and security in WMNs.
Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks : A Cross-Layer Design Perspective
Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks: A Cross-Layer Design Perspective deals with the emerging design trend that transcends traditional communication layers for performance gains in ad hoc and sensor networks. The author explores the current state of the art in cross-layer approaches for ad hoc and sensor networks, providing a comprehensive design resource. The book offers a structured comparison and analysis of both layered and cross-layer design, providing readers with an overview of the many issues relating to ad hoc and sensor networks. The benefits of these cross-layer approaches are examined through three diverse case studies: a monitoring sensor network using Radio Frequency waves, an ad hoc network that uses Ultra Wide Band Radio, and an acoustic underwater sensor network for environmental monitoring.
Wired/Wireless Internet Communications ; 6th International Conference, WWIC 2008 Tampere, Finland, May 28-30, 2008 Proceedings
This book is organized in topical sessions on performance analysis of wireless systems, resource and QoS management, implementation techniques, mobility, cross-layer design, and wireless sensor networks.
Resource Management in Satellite Networks : Optimization and Cross-Layer Design
Resource Management in Satellite Networks: Optimization and Cross-Layer Design addresses the emergent research area of cross-layer air interface design for satellite systems. A detailed analysis of cross-layer methods is presented along with new analytical and simulation results demonstrating that these techniques can assures high QoS levels for differentiated traffic classes. The research presented integrates the expertise of a wide range of researchers, and addresses all aspects of system design (e.g., propagation issues, resource management techniques, link design, QoS, transport protocols, etc.). Of particular importance is the inclusion of research applicable to both fixed and mobile satellite systems.
