Performance Evaluation of Directional Adaptive Range Control in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Overview This paper presents DARC (Directional Adaptive Range Control), a range control mechanism using directional antennas to be implemented across multiple layers. DARC uses directional reception for range control rather than directional transmission in order to achieve both range extension and high spatial reuse. It adaptively controls the communication range by estimating dynamically changing local network density based on the transmission activities around each network node. The experimental results using simulation with detailed physical layer, IEEE 802.11 DCF MAC, and AODV protocol models have shown the successful adaptation of communication range with DARC for varied network densities and traffic loads.

The Bloor Perspective: Security, e-procurement and convergence

The company's latest move brings routers that direct the data flow through the high capacity cables, handling quality of service for different types of transmission. It is a seriously difficult objective to achieve, but will Britannia pull it off?

Intel touts the "new internet"

But when a PlanetLab "node" was added to the network, it took over broadcasting duties for those computers, and the overall picture quality rebounded. Gelsinger likened the webcasting system to a more adaptive version of internet infrastructure...

Devil's Advocate: BT strikes out with 21CN

While the basic protocol of IP is fixed, despite various attempts to hijack it for proprietary purposes, the network management layer has a good deal of proprietary content and only limited interoperability.

Peter Cochrane's Blog: Fat cat telcos are killing the net

To go for a world of increasing complexity, as we try to squeeze more and more out of a given amount of transmission bandwidth and routing capacity, or to throw more and more bandwidth at the problem to achieve a greater simplicity at the expense...

Peter Cochrane's Blog: Is web 2.0 doomed to fail?

Starting from the last: bi-directional working means equal bandwidth for upstream and downstream transmission. Bi-directional working is essential Web 2.0 is fundamentally based on true bi-directional bandwidth - which most people don't have.

Peter Cochrane's Blog: NGNs - real or imaginary?

As networks digitised switching and transmission everything improved beyond recognition. Those who grasped the nettle and extended fibre to home and office will thus achieve vast and continuing savings, while those hanging onto their copper past...

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
