The Linux TCP/IP stack contributions have recently pointed all in the same direction: maximize available throughput while maintaining low latency. These activities started by mitigating buffebloat phenomenon at network bottleneck as much possible. So far, deployed solutions been designed considering standard models for that could be either wireless or wired. introduction of Wi-Fi 6 is dislocati...

Crowdsourced wireless community network enables individual users to share their private Wi-Fi access points (APs) with each other, hence can achieve a large Wi-Fi coverage with a small deployment cost via crowdsourcing. This paper presents a novel contract-based incentive framework to incentivize such a Wi-Fi network crowdsourcing under incomplete information (where each user has certain privat...

background: drug resistance is widely believed to be an increasingly serious threat to global public health. we have previously reported that short term exposure of microorganisms to diagnostic ultrasound waves could significantly alter their sensitivity to antibiotics. in our previous studies, klebsiella pneumoniae showed major differences in the sensitivity to antibiotics in exposed and non-e...

Wi-Fi is mission-critical in our personal and business lives. It’s in our homes, offices, hospitals, coffee shops, and on our flights. Great Wi-Fi is no longer a luxury—it’s a must have. Great Wi-Fi networks are stable, with high capacity and performance, that exceed our quality of experience (QoE) needs. However, most Wi-Fi networks today are only qualified for coverage, with basic element and...

Due to the fast increase of mobile traffic, most mobile network operators face the congestion issue in licensed spectrum bands. Several telecommunication vendors and operators propose to expand LTE service to the unlicensed spectrum bands to relieve the traffic congestion. However, LTE in unlicensed spectrum may interfere with Wi-Fi communications in the same bands and cause significant decreas...

Android devices are portable, equipped with powerful processors, and can act as both mesh routers and clients through Wi-Fi Direct, making them a suitable platform from which to deploy a wireless mesh network. To allow Android devices to automatically establish and participate in a wireless mesh network, we circumvent two key problems of the Android’s Wi-Fi APIs: lack of direct support for ad-h...
