WTRP—Wireless Token Ring Protocol

ESTR - Energy Saving Token Ring Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

Most wireless sensor networks rely on battery energy. In applications with a great number of sensor nodes and a wide area of monitored environment it is not always feasible to replace the battery. In some cases, even the location of the sensor node is unknown. In order to achieve a long lifetime of the sensor network and the application it is important to save energy. A sensor node consumes the...

Wireless Token Ring Protocol-Performance Comparison with IEEE 802.11

The paper presents the performance advantage of Wireless Token Ring Protocol (WTRP) versus IEEE 802.11 in DCF mode. WTRP is a medium access control (MAC) protocol and is designed to provide quality of service in WLANs. WTRP supports guaranteed QoS in terms of bounded latency and reserved bandwidth which are crucial constraints of the real time applications and unapplicable in a IEEE 802.11 netw...

Token Ring Project

Ring topology is a simple configuration used to connect processes that communicate among themselves. A number of network standards such as token ring, token bus, and FDDI are based on the ring connectivity. This article will develop an implementation of a ring of processes that communicate among themselves via pipe links. The processes are nodes in the ring. Each process reads from its standard...
