Existing draft version of standard proposes OFDM(A)-based handover process system, which consists of network topology acquisition, scanning, initial ranging, authorization, and registration. Since various researcher groups and companies have done each part of standardization work, there exist some unclear parts and redundant processes, especially in HO process. For instance, HO initiation timing is not clearly defined and unnecessary neighboring base station (BS) scanning and association are performed before and during HO process. These redundant processes causes a long HO operation time, which makes severe degradation in system performance. In this paper, fast HO algorithm is proposed to reduce HO operation delay. Target BS estimation algorithm using mean CINR and arrival time difference reduces unnecessary neighboring BS scanning. And some redundant work during network topology acquisition and scanning process is abbreviated as well. The performance analysis validates the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.","PeriodicalId":145728,"journal":{"name":"2006 1st International Symposium on Wireless Pervasive Computing","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129887197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Communication between nodes requires the expenditure of energy, a scarce commodity in most WSNs. Thus, making effective use of data require scalable, self organizing, and energy-efficient data dissemination algorithms. In this paper, contrary to existing techniques, the coverage problem in a three dimensional space is analyzed. The \"coverage hole\" problem is also analyzed and a substitute plan is proposed where sensor nodes that are almost out of energy or already dead, are substituted by nodes that covers their sensing region and have more energy supply.","PeriodicalId":145728,"journal":{"name":"2006 1st International Symposium on Wireless Pervasive Computing","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128564079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Providing support for large-scale service and application deployment in these networks, however is crucial to make them a viable alternative. The lack of infrastructure, coupled with the time-varying characteristics of ad-hoc networks, brings about new challenges to the design and deployment of applications on a large-scale. This paper addresses these challenges and presents PeerNet, a unified, overlay-based service architecture to support large-scale service and application deployment in MANETs. We discuss the main functionalities of PeerNet, describe the algorithms for resource registration and discovery, and present PILOT, a novel power-aware, location-driven traffic forwarding algorithm to enable node interaction.

The proposed equalization algorithm estimates the dominant taps of equalizer, and then partitions the equalizer tap into a Kalman partition and LMS partition according to the dominant power criteria. The tap positions assigned as the Kalman partition are updated using the reduced-complexity Kalman filtering adaptive algorithm, and the tap positions assigned as the LMS partition are updated using the LMS adaptive algorithm. The proposed tap-partitioned, chip-level equalizer exhibits fast convergence speed and is less complex than the conventional Kalman filtering-based equalization algorithm. In addition, while the performance of the conventional reduced-rank chip-equalizer degraded significantly when the tap selection was not optimal, that of the proposed algorithm is robust even when the tap partitioning is not ideal.","PeriodicalId":145728,"journal":{"name":"2006 1st International Symposium on Wireless Pervasive Computing","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132685621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we propose a routing scheme for multimedia services called modified dynamic source routing (MDSR) protocol. The MDSR selects the shortest path by using power level. Our proposed scheme provides lower average delay and mean number of hop path from source to destination than DSR protocol can provide.","PeriodicalId":145728,"journal":{"name":"2006 1st International Symposium on Wireless Pervasive Computing","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123052352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
