چکیده

In this report we propose a MultiObjective (MO) performance evaluation framework for wireless ad hoc networks where criteria such as capacity, robustness, energy and delay are optimized concurrently. Within such a framework, we can determine both the Pareto-optimal performance bounds and the networking parameters that provide these bounds. The originality of this approach is that it accounts for the inherent broadcast properties of the transmission and finely models the interference distribution. In the proposed model, the network performance can be optimized when several flows (sourcedestination transmissions) exist. One benefit of our approach is that the complexity does not grow with the number of flows. The other major contribution of this paper is the new analytical formulation of the performance metrics. It relies on a matrix representation of the constraints imposed by the interferencelimited and broadcast wireless channel. Because of the similarity of this matrix with a Markovian transition matrix, we can exploit classical results from Markov chains theory to derive steady state performance metrics relative to capacity, robustness, energy and delay. Another very interesting feature of these new metrics is that the Pareto-optimal solutions related to them provide a tight bound on capacity, robustness, energy and delay. Key-words: wireless ad hoc networks, multiobjective optimization, performance evaluation This paper has been submitted to IEEE INFOCOM 2011 ∗ Équipe SWING † Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, NJ, USA De la prise en compte des interférences et de la nature broadcast du canal radio pour l’évaluation de performance des réseaux sans-fils Résumé : Ce rapport de recherche présente un modèle multiobjectif d’évaluation des performances d’un réseau ad hoc sans-fils. Les critères tels que la capacité, la robustesse, l’énergie et le délais de transmission sont optimisés conjointement. Grâce à ce modèle il est possible de déterminer une borne en performance Pareto-optimale et les différents paramètres du réseau qui permettent d’obtenir de telles bornes. L’originalité de cette approche réside dans le fait qu’elle modèle finement la nature broadcast intrinsèque du canal radio et prend en compte de fa con précise la distribution des interférences dans le réseau. Il est ici possible d’optimiser les décisions de routage et d’ordonnancement des paquets dans un réseau quand plusieurs flots sont transmis dans le réseau. La complexité de calcul de l’ensemble des solutions Pareto-optimale n’augmente |pas avec le nombre de flots présents dans le réseau. La contribution majeure de ces travaux est la présentation d’un nouvelle formulation analytique des mesures de performance. Cette formulation se base sur une représentation matricielle des contraintes imposées par la nature broadcast du canal et la distribution des interférences dans le réseau. Du fait de la similarité de cette matrice avec une matrice Markovienne, il est possible d’exploiter des résultats classiques de la théorie des chaînes de Markov pour déduire des métriques de capacité, robustesse, énergie et délais, le tout pour un régime permanent. Mots-clés : réseaux ad hoc sans-fil, optimisation multi-objectifs, évaluation de performances On the performance evaluation of wireless networks 3

Broadcast Routing in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks: A Particle Swarm optimization Approach

While routing in multi-hop packet radio networks (static Ad-hoc wireless networks), it is crucial to minimize power consumption since nodes are powered by batteries of limited capacity and it is expensive to recharge the device. This paper studies the problem of broadcast routing in radio networks. Given a network with an identified source node, any broadcast routing is considered as a directed...

Interference-Aware and Cluster Based Multicast Routing in Multi-Radio Multi-Channel Wireless Mesh Networks

Multicast routing is one of the most important services in Multi Radio Multi Channel (MRMC) Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN). Multicast routing performance in WMNs could be improved by choosing the best routes and the routes that have minimum interference to reach multicast receivers. In this paper we want to address the multicast routing problem for a given channel assignment in WMNs. The channels...

A New Unequal Error Protection Technique Based on the Mutual Information of the MPEG-4 Video Frames over Wireless Networks

The performance of video transmission over wireless channels is limited by the channel noise. Thus many error resilience tools have been incorporated into the MPEG-4 video compression method. In addition to these tools, the unequal error protection (UEP) technique has been proposed to protect the different parts in an MPEG-4 video packet with different channel coding rates based on the rate...
