About this Item

Neuware -This work proposed a novel communication protocol for dynamic, distributed wireless networks. This protocol can adapt to users movements as well as the environment changes. A scalable channel prediction scheme is required to implement the practical Channel MAC protocol in practice. We propose a mean-value based channel prediction scheme, which provides prediction with enough accuracy to be used in the Channel MAC protocol. Next, we extend the Channel MAC protocol to support multi-rate communications. We propose a safety margin based technique to provide auto rate adaptation of the multi-rate Channel MAC. The speed, fairness, and resource utilisation in wireless communications are improved by the proposed protocol compared to existing techniques.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 168 pp. Englisch.

Synopsis

This work proposed a novel communication protocol for dynamic, distributed wireless networks. This protocol can adapt to users movements as well as the environment changes. A scalable channel prediction scheme is required to implement the practical Channel MAC protocol in practice. We propose a mean-value based channel prediction scheme, which provides prediction with enough accuracy to be used in the Channel MAC protocol. Next, we extend the Channel MAC protocol to support multi-rate communications. We propose a safety margin based technique to provide auto rate adaptation of the multi-rate Channel MAC. The speed, fairness, and resource utilisation in wireless communications are improved by the proposed protocol compared to existing techniques.
