CSMA/CA in Time and Frequency Domains

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen

It has recently been shown that flexible channelization, whereby wireless stations adapt their spectrum bands on a per-frame basis, is feasible in practice. In this paper, we propose TF-CSMA/CA, an algorithm for flexible channelization that schedules packe ...

Flexible Spectrum Assignment for Local Wireless Networks

Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen

In this dissertation, we consider the problem of assigning spectrum to wireless local-area networks (WLANs). In line with recent IEEE 802.11 amendments and newer hardware capabilities, we consider situations where wireless nodes have the ability to adapt n ...

Electri-Fi Your Data: Measuring and Combining Power-Line Communications with WiFi

Patrick Thiran, Christina Vlachou, Sébastien Christophe Henri

Power-line communication (PLC) is widely used as it offers high data-rates and forms a network over electrical wiring, an existing and ubiquitous infrastructure. PLC is increasingly being deployed in hybrid networks that combine multiple technologies, the ...

iPRP: Parallel Redundancy Protocol for IP Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Dan-Cristian Tomozei, Miroslav Popovic, Maaz Mashood Mohiuddin

Reliable packet delivery within stringent delay constraints is of primal importance to industrial processes with hard real-time constraints, such as electrical grid monitoring. Because retransmission and coding techniques counteract the delay requirements, ...

Random Access With Physical-Layer Network Coding

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Jasper Goseling

We consider a physical-layer network coding strategy for the random-access channel, based on compute-and-forward. When packets collide, it is possible to reliably recover a linear combination of the packets at the receiver. Over many rounds of transmission ...

Prioritized Random MAC Optimization via Graph-based Analysis

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni

Motivated by the analogy between successive interference cancellation and iterative belief-propagation on erasure channels, irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) strategies have received a lot of attention in the design of medium access control protoco ...

Hierarchical Routing Over Dynamic Wireless Networks

Dominique Florian Tschopp, Matthias Grossglauser, Suhas Diggavi

The topology of a mobile wireless network changes over time. Maintaining routes between all nodes requires the continuous transmission of control information, which consumes precious power and bandwidth resources. Many routing protocols have been developed ...

Method of real-time regulation compliance for wireless transmitters

Pierre-André Farine, Mitko Tanevski, Alexis Boegli

All wireless devices must comply with the local radio regulations which are set by international and national regulatory bodies such as the European Telecommunication Standardization Institute (ETSI) for Europe and the Federal Commission for Communication ...
