Self-Configuration and Self-Optimization Process in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks

Self-Configuration and Self-Optimization Process in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks

Self-organization in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) is an emergent research area, which is becoming important due to the increasing number of nodes in a network. Consequently, the manual configuration of nodes is either impossible or highly costly. So it is desirable for the nodes to be able to configure themselves. In this paper, we propose an alternative architecture for self-organization of WM...

GS: Scalable Self-configuration and Self-healing in Wireless Networks*

We present GS, a distributed, scalable, self-configuration and self-healing algorithm for multi-hop wireless networks. The algorithm enables network nodes in a 2D plane to configure themselves into a cellular hexagonal structure such that cells have tightly bounded geographic radius and low overlap between neighboring cells. The structure is self-healing under various perturbations, such as nod...

Configuration and Optimization in Self-Managing Networks: a Tutorial

One of the key goals of network administration is configuring a network that is always operating at an optimal state. However, this goal is increasingly time-consuming and expensive as networks increase in size and complexity. One path to offsetting the increasing cost is in the implementation of a network that manages itself – known as a cognitive network. This paper will introduce the concept...
