چکیده
---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract -The concept of cooperative communication has been proposed to improve link capacity, transmission reliability, network coverage and cooperative transmission ranges in multiuser wireless communication networks. Cooperative communication allows multiple users or stations in a wireless network to coordinate packet transmissions and share each other’s resources, thus achieving high performance gain, better service coverage and enhanced cooperative transmissions ranges. According to the IEEE 802.11 standards, wireless local area networks (WLANs) can support multiple transmissions data rates, depending on the instantaneous channel condition between a source station and an access point (AP). In this work a Cooperative Medium Access Control (CoopMAC) protocol, in which high data rate stations assist low data rate stations in their traffic. Extensive simulation results validate the mathematical models developed and show that CoopMAC protocol can significantly improve system throughput, service delay and energy efficiency for WLANs operating under realistic communication scenarios.

متن کاملLink-Layer Cooperative Communication in Vehicular Networks
Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are a special kind of communication networks and possess unique characteristics as compared with general mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), where vehicles communicate with each other or with stationary road side units. Hence, directly applying the existing communication protocols designed for MANETs may not be reliable and efficient in VANETs. Thus, this thesis ...
متن کاملPerformance Analysis of Wireless Cooperative Networks with Iterative Incremental Relay Selection
In this paper, an iterative incremental relay selection (IIRS) scheme is considered for wireless cooperative networks in order to increase the reliability of transmission. Different from the conventional incremental relay selection which incrementally selects a best relay for only one iteration; the IIRS scheme iteratively applies the incremental relaying and relay selection processes. To evalu...

IEEE 802.11a/b/g standards support multiple data rates. Although the use of multiple data rates increases the capacity of wireless networks, it can lead to a performance anomaly problem. Cooperative communication for wireless networks has attracted considerable interest owing to its ability to mitigate this performance anomaly problem. In cooperative communication, a number of relay nodes suppo...
