In recent years, we have witnessed a huge interest in the study of channel allocation and handoff strategies for cellu lar systems to ensure continuous services that guarantee QoS to mobile users. In this paper, we have a detailed d iscussion of different categories of wireless channel allocation schemes. The basic purpose of the study is to provide a comprehensive review of d ifferent categori...

In the present study, we analyze the multi-channel service system with ordered entryfrom finite-source and finite-storage at each channel. The arrival and service rates are assumedto be state dependent. The steady state probabilities of the system are obtained by usingChapmann-Kolmogorov equations. Some other performance indices viz. utilization of servers,expected number of units in the system...

Interference between concurrent transmissions can cause severe performance degradation in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). While multiple channels available in WSN technology such as IEEE 802.15.4 can be exploited to mitigate interference, channel allocation can have a significant impact on the performance of multi-channel communication. This paper proposes a set of distributed algorithms for n...

This paper aims at investigating the superiority of power allocation strategies, based on calculus of variations in a point-to-point two-way relay-assisted channel incorporating the amplify and forward strategy. Single and multilayer coding strategies for two cases of having and not having the channel state information (CSI) at the transmitters are studied, respectively. Using the notion of cal...

In this thesis, we develop efficient algorithms for the jointly optimal power and chan­ nel resource allocation in different wireless cooperative multiple access systems. In addition, in some cases insight into the structure of the optimal allocation enables the development of modified cooperation schemes with better performance, and efficient algorithms are developed for jointly optimal power ...

This paper discusses wireless channel allocation problem for data dissemination in mobile computing systems. Methods for accessing data through broadcast and on-demand channels are described. We provide analytical models and cost formulae for the exclusive broadcast channels and the exclusive on-demand channels and propose a dynamic channel allocation algorithm for optimizing system performance...
