Bandwidth-Aware Routing Tree (BART) for Underwater 3-D Geographic Routing

Kim, Tae (2008-08-15)

The limited bandwidth and power resources in underwater sensor networks have made geographic routing a favorite choice. While many detouring strategies in geographic routing do not work for 3-D underwater network topology, ...

Energy-Efficient Traffic-Aware Routing in Underwater

Zhang, Lei (2008-08-15)

Underwater acoustic networks are a special type of wireless sensor networks deployed in a harsh oceanic environment for mission critical tasks. In this unique sensor network, energy efficiency is the most critical problem. ...

Genetic and Evolutionary Protocols for Solving Distributed Asymmetric Constraint Satisfaction Problems

Fu, Ser-Geon (2007-08-15)

Processor speed has been growing at an exponential rate over the past 50 years. Computers are getting smaller, cheaper and faster. Over the past 30 years, with the growth of the internet, new forms of decentralized ...

High Performance Rate Adaptation on IEEE 802.11 Networks

Wu, Shaoen (2008-08-15)

IEEE 802.11 standard has evolved from the basic transmission rates in early days to multiple rates today with advanced encoding and antenna techniques. The performance of IEEE 802.11 wireless networks is supposed to ...

Improving Geographic Routing with Neighbor Sectoring

Jin, Jingren (2007-12-15)

An ad hoc network consists of many mobile devices which forms a network automatically. Among many ad hoc network routing algorithms, geographic routing algorithm is known as an efficient and scalable routing protocol. The ...

Improving System Performance for Wireless Networks

Shen, Fangyang (2008-08-15)

In this dissertation, we solve two problems in wireless networks: Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) enhancement and cluster node sleep scheduling. When TCP is deployed in a wireless mesh network, it encounters several ...

An Indoor Wireless LAN Location Determination System

Song, Lanlan (2005-12-15)

As pervasive computing becomes more popular, the need for context-aware applica-tions increases. The context of an application refers to the information that is part of its operating environment, in which the physical ...

Lattice-Reduction Aided Linear Equalization For Wireless Communications Over Fading Channels

Zhang, Wei (2006-05-15)

Modern wireless communications ask for high data rate, high transmission performance and low complexity. High data rate induces frequency-selective channels because of the relatively shorter symbol duration than the delay ...

Location Estimation in Wireless Networks

Ji, Yiming (2006-05-15)

Wireless location determination has attracted much attention lately due to its many applications in mobile (sensor) networking including target tracking and network intrusion detection. However, it is challenging due to ...

Multi Initiator Connected Dominating Set Construction for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Kim, Kyoung (2008-08-15)

Connected dominating set (CDS) has been extensively used for routing and broadcast in mobile ad hoc networks. While existing CDS protocols are successful in constructing CDS of competitive size with localized information, ...

Multiple UAV Simulation with Multiresolution Multistage Models and Decision Support

Li, Bo (2008-08-15)

Multi UAV simulation is a dynamic multi-simulation of multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) activities in the battlefield with multiresolution multistage models. Decision support is implemented under this simulation. It ...
