Analysis and Enhancement of CSMA/CA With Deferral in Power-Line Communications

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen, Christina Vlachou

Power-line communications are employed in home networking to provide easy and high-throughput connectivity. The IEEE 1901, the MAC protocol for power-line networks, employs a CSMA/CA protocol similar to that of 802.11, but is substantially more complex, wh ...

Creating Secrets Out Of Packet Erasures

Christina Fragouli, Aikaterini Argyraki, Iris Safaka, László Czap

We present protocols for creating pairwise secrets between nodes in a wireless network, so that these secrets are secure from an eavesdropper, Eve, with unbounded computational and memory capabilities, but with limited network presence. We first present a ...

Dynamic Routing for Flying Ad Hoc Networks

Dario Floreano, Bixio Rimoldi, Grégoire Hilaire Marie Heitz, Stefano Rosati, Karol Jacek Kruzelecki

This paper reports experimental results on self-organizing wireless networks carried by small flying robots. Flying ad hoc networks (FANETs) composed of small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are flexible, inexpensive and fast to deploy. This makes them a v ...

EMPoWER Hybrid Networks: Exploiting Multiple Paths over Wireless and ElectRical Mediums

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen, Christina Vlachou, Sébastien Christophe Henri

Several technologies, such as WiFi, Ethernet and power-line communications (PLC), can be used to build residential and enterprise networks. These technologies often co-exist; most networks use WiFi, and buildings are readily equipped with electrical wires ...

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 ...
