An Adaptive Link Adaptation Scheme for Multi-rate Wireless LANs
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose an efficient rate switching scheme for IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs. The proposed scheme switches the transmission rate by the patterns of transmission successes and failures, and the measured signal strength of a recently received packet. Our simulation study shows that the proposed scheme shows better performance than existing rate adaptation schemes. Key-Words: link adaptation; multipath fading; multi-rate transmissions

Adaptive call admission control and resource allocation in multi server wireless/cellular network
The ever increasing demand of the subscribers has put pressure on the capacity of wireless networks around the world. To utilize the scare resources, in the present paper we propose an optimal allocation scheme for an integrated wireless/cellular model with handoff priority and handoff guarantee services. The suggested algorithm optimally allocates the resources in each cell and dynamically adj...
متن کاملAn SSCOP-based link layer protocol for wireless LANs
The IEEE 802.11 standard provides fast recovery from frame losses using a rapid link level positive acknowledgment scheme. However, the adoption of positive acknowledgment leads to inefficient frame transmission. To improve efficiency of the acknowledgments mechanism in IEEE 802.11, we propose a novel link layer protocol for wireless LANs. The proposed protocol is an adaptation of an ATM-based...
متن کاملAsymptotic Close to Optimal Resource Allocation in Centralized Multi-band Wireless Networks
This paper concerns sub-channel allocation in multi-user wireless networks with a view to increasing the network throughput. It is assumed there are some sub-channels to be equally divided among active links, such that the total sum rate increases, where it is assumed each link is subject to a maximum transmit power constraint. This problem is found to be a non-convex optimization problem and i...

Adaptive quality of service techniques can e ectively respond to time-varying channel conditions found in wireless networks. In this paper we assess the state-of-the-art in quality of service adaptive wireless systems and argue for new adaptation techniques that are better suited to respond to application speci c adaptation needs. A quality of service adaptive data link control model is present...
