Location-Aware Cross-Layer Design Using Overlay Watermarks

Location-Aware Cross-Layer Design Using Overlay Watermarks

A new orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system embedded with overlay watermarks for location-aware crosslayer design is proposed in this paper. One major advantage of the proposed system is the multiple functionalities the overlay watermark provides, which includes a cross-layer signaling interface, a transceiver identification for position-aware routing, as well as its basic ro...

Cross Layer Design for P2P Overlay Network over MANET

Peer-to-peer (p2p) network is an alternative of client/server system for sharing resources, e.g. files. P2P network is a robust, distributed and fault tolerant architecture. We consider the scenario of p2p network over MANET where all nodes are the members of p2p network and one of the node acts as p2p server which maintains the file list available to the nodes. The mobility of nodes constantly...

Location Based Transmission Using a Neighbour Aware-Cross Layer MAC for Ad Hoc Networks

In a typical Ad Hoc network, mobile nodes have scarce shared band‐ width and limited battery life resources, so optimizing the resource and enhancing the overall network performance is the ultimate aim in such network. This paper proposes anew cross layer MAC algorithm called Location Based Transmission using a Neighbour Aware – Cross Layer MAC (LBT-NA Cross Layer MAC) that aims to reduce the t...

Analyzing Cross-layer Interaction in Overlay Networks

Congestion-aware cross-layer design for wireless ad hoc networks

Ad hoc networks have emerged recently as an important trend of future wireless systems. The evolving wireless networks are seriously challenging the traditional OSI layered design. In order to provide high capacity wireless access and support new multimedia network, the various OSI layers and network functions should be considered together while designing the network. In this thesis, we briefly...
