Future microcellular systems will require distributed network control. A packet-switched network is particularly suitable for this requirement. Moreover, packet switching naturally accommodates speech activity detection to improve Vation-ALOHA protocol for packet speech transmission from wireless terminals to a base station. Because PRMA is a statistical multiplexer, the channel becomes congest...

in this study, a robust controller is designed for fuzzy network control systems (ncss) using the static output feedback. delay and data packet dropout affect on the stability of network control systems, and therefore, the asymptotic stability condition is established considering delay and data packet dropout. delay is time-varying while the lower and upper bounds for delay is defined, and the ...

This letter presents a new receiver for -ary transmission, where all receiver blocks are embedded in an iterative structure. Packet data transmission in global systems for mobile communications (GSM) and enhanced data rates for global evolution (EDGE) are considered as examples. A low-complexity soft-insoft-out detector for EDGE is introduced and its modification suitable for iterative detectio...

We propose a new packet reservation multiple access (PRMA) scheme for the joint transmission of voice and data traffics in a microcellular medium. The collision resolution protocol within the system is based on a modification of the window random access algorithm, which has superior properties compared to the conventional slotted Aloha. The proposed algorithm, which we call packet reservation w...

This paper considers a multistage interconnection network based on the Indirect Star Graph topology as a candidate for an ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) switch fabric. We consider both buffered and unbuffered versions of the indirect star. The performance of three existing routing algorithms is studied, and it is found that the packet acceptance probability offered by these algorithms is unsa...

In the research on the networked control systems (NCS) the performance of the control system is assumed to be affected by network induced parameters such as delays, jitters, packet losses, link failures. In this paper a reconfiguration of the network control is presented. The upper bound delay of the transmission time of a packet is monitored with the network calculus based algorithm. A modific...

General packet radio service (GPRS) provides efficient access to the integrated services Internet from wireless networks. When the GPRS-attached mobile station attempts to send or receive data, a packet data protocol (PDP) context shall be established. The GPRS session management (SM) supports the PDP context handling, which consists of PDP context activation, deactivation, and modification pro...

TCP optimization for wireless networks, for dealing with packet losses and disconnections due to fading, shadowing and handoffs, ideally should maintain TCP end-to-end semantics with minimal dependence on intermediate nodes. This paper presents such a mechanism that uses disconnection duration estimates at the receiver, derived from timestamps, to avoid an increase in the retransmission timeout...

the establishment as well as the survival of mobile ad-hoc networks relies on the cooperation of nodes for performing network operations such as routing and packet forwarding. in these networks, misbehaving nodes can severely degrade network’s performance by not cooperating in networking operations. in this paper, we study the issue of node misbehavior in packet forwarding. to counter this type...

The quality of service limitation of today’s Internet is a major challenge for real-time voice communications. Excessive delay, packet loss, and high delay jitter all impair the communication quality. A new receiver-based playout scheduling scheme is proposed to improve the tradeoff between buffering delay and late loss for real-time voice communication over IP networks. In this scheme the netw...
