Improving the Capacity in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks Through Multiple Channel Operation: Design Principles and Protocols

Overview Despite recent advances in Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) technologies, nowadays WLANs still cannot offer the same data rates as their wired counterparts. The throughput problem is further aggravated in multi-hop wireless environments due to collisions and interference caused by multi-hop routing. Because all current IEEE 802.11 PHYsical (PHY) standards divide the available frequency into several orthogonal channels, which can be used simultaneously within a neighborhood, increasing capacity by exploiting multiple channels becomes particularly appealing.

News in View: Pundits fail to bond with wireless networks

Kevin Flood, chief technology officer at Tolly Research, was more cautious, admitting that interference caused by the weather, electricity surges or physical impediments can be a problem. But problems with interference and dead spots on wireless...

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Wireless everything

We have principally avoided interference by allocating specific frequencies of operations separated in the same way that the different radio channels on your FM radio are allocated. Sometimes this is experienced when atmospheric conditions cause...

Peter Cochrane's Blog: More wireless equals more wires

In addition, the reuse of spectrum - and the control and limitation of interference - dictate increasingly small cells as bandwidth demands increase. In the old wireless regime we carefully planned and limited the use of space and spectrum, and...

The techs SMEs need for converged telecoms

Much like wired Ethernet before it, wi-fi networks were not designed specifically to carry voice. FMC is a form of least cost routing (LCR) and because in-office calls can be transported over the business' broadband network, it is possible to make...

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.
