Specification and Implementation of Multicast Congestion Control Stair Protocol: Use Case with Multimedia Ubiquitous Networks
2008
Ubiquitous and efficient multicast data delivery service is essential to the success of large-scale group communication applications. In this framework, congestion control through ubiquitous networks is a hot topic for multicast real time protocols. In this paper, authors present specification and implementation of simulate TCP's AIMD with rate-based (STAIR), a multicast congestion control mechanism. Authors have enhanced this approach because they have modeled it using Unified Modeling Language with real time extensions (UML-RT) as a formal specification tool. More to the point point, they introduce a multimedia ubiquitous network which they have used as a reference model to promote their …
Supporting scalable video transmission in MANETs through distributed admission control mechanisms
2009
Emerging multimedia applications over mobile devices are becoming very popular, especially over infrastructure wireless networks such as cellular and WLANs. However, providing this kind of services over infrastructureless networks like ad hoc networks presents many additional problems. One of these problems is how to share resources fairly among the users involved. In this article we propose a QoS framework supporting scalable video streaming in mobile ad hoc networks based on distributed admission control and video traffic awareness. Our framework promotes fairness between video flows in terms of resource consumption. It also guarantees a significant reduction of the idle times experienced…
Interference Estimation in IEEE 802.11 Networks
2010
This article describes a technique for distinguishing and quantifying medium access control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY) interference in error-prone 802.11 networks. This technique, is fully distributed, allowing each station to estimate interference individually. The estimator is based on an extended Kalman filter coupled to a mechanism for revealing abrupt changes in state. The network state is a vector of two components, representing PHY interference, expressed in terms of channel-error rate, and MAC interference. Two distinct state models are considered. When PHY interference can be assumed to be constant for all stations, network congestion is expressed by the number of competing ter…

Article also available from publisher: http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/ICICS.2009.5397691 High speed satellite communication networks are emerging as part of the future global wireless communication systems. However, existing transmission control protocols for satellite networks do not provide satisfactory performance over high speed satellite links due to their ine…
