A Delay Based Multipath Optimal Route Analysis for Multi-hop CSMA/CA Wireless Mesh Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present a method for determining optimal routes along selected paths in a wireless mesh network based on an interference aware delay analysis. We develop an analytic model that enables us to obtain closed form expressions for delay in terms of multipath routing variables. A flow deviation algorithm is used to derive the optimal flow over a given set of routes. The model takes into account the effects of neighbor interference and hidden terminals, and tools are provided to make it feasible for the performance analysis and optimization of large-scale networks. Numerical results are presented for different network topologies and compared with simulation studies.

A scalable delay based analytical framework for CSMA/CA wireless mesh networks
We present an analytical framework for the performance analysis of CSMA/CA based wireless mesh networks. This framework can provide an accurate throughput-delay evaluation for both saturated and unsaturated cases. As another important application of this framework, we develop an analytic model that enables us to obtain closed form expressions for delay in terms of multipath routing variables. A...
متن کاملThe Feedback Based Mechanism for Video Streaming Over Multipath Ad Hoc Networks
Ad hoc networks are multi-hop wireless networks without a pre-installed infrastructure. Such networks are widely used in military applications and in emergency situations as they permit the establishment of a communication network at very short notice with a very low cost. Video is very sensitive for packet loss and wireless ad-hoc networks are error prone due to node mobility and weak links. H...

Wireless multi-hop networks are expected to become important building blocks of future communication networks. With increasing deployment and utilization of such networks, analytic performance models for the analysis of important metrics, in particular throughput, will become necessary. The deployed medium access control (MAC) mechanism has a significant impact on this metric, and Carrier Sense...
متن کاملPerformance Analysis of CSMA/CA(Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance) Protocols for Wireless Local Area Networks in Multipath and Shadowing Environments
The channel throughput and packet delay of wireless media access control (MAC) protocols with Rayleigh fading, shadowing and capture effect are analyzed. We consider CSMA/CA protocols as the wireless MAC protocols, since CSMA/CA protocols are based on the standard for wireless Local Area Networks (LANs) IEEE 802.11. We analyze the channel throughput and packet delay for three types of CSMA/CA p...
متن کاملImproving Performance for CSMA/CA Based Wireless Networks
Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) based wireless networks are becoming increasingly ubiquitous. With the aim of supporting rich multimedia applications such as high-definition television (HDTV, 20Mbps) and DVD (9.8Mbps), one of the technology trends is towards increasingly higher bandwidth. Some recent IEEE 802.11n proposals seek to provide PHY rates of up to 600 ...
