Toward New Link Layer Protocols
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes an experimental new link layer protocol for amateur packet radio use. It extends my earlier MACA scheme for dealing with hidden terminals by incorporating a powerful forward error correction (FEC) scheme: convolutional coding with sequential decoding. The resulting hybrid protocol combines the best of the FEC and retransmission (ARQ) techniques. It should perform very well in the presence of hidden terminals, noise and interference, particularly pulsed radar QRM like that often found on the 70cm amateur band.

An Intelligent Prediction Model for Generating LGD Trigger of IEEE 802.21 MIH
IEEE recently standardized 802.21-2008 Media Independent Handover (MIH) standard. MIH is a key milestone toward the evolution of integrated heterogeneous 4G wireless networks. MIH provides number of link layer events in a unified way that facilitate upper layer protocols in making handover decisions. One such event is Link Going Down (LGD) trigger. LGD is a predictive event that is generated wh...
متن کاملAvoiding Route Breakage in Ad Hoc Networks using Link Prediction
This paper presents a new concept to improve Ad Hoc Routing Protocols exploiting IEEE 802.11a Link Adaptation information. The IEEE 802.11a Link Adaptation information is used to predict the link stability and link lifetime. After introducing the IEEE 802.11a MAC Layer information and its transmission modes, the paper reviews some insights of the IEEE 802.11a Link Adaptation behaviour. Based on...
متن کاملMulti-channel Medium Access Control Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey
Extensive researches on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have been performed and many techniques have been developed for the data link (MAC) layer. Most of them assume single-channel MAC protocols. In the usual dense deployment of the sensor networks, single-channel MAC protocols may be deficient because of radio collisions and limited bandwidth. Hence, using multiple channels can significantly ...
