As the simulation results for an 802.11 based system show, the proposed scheme improves the overall network throughput while reducing the mean and variance of end-to-end delay for voice and video flows due to smarter bandwidth allocation to elastic and real-time traffic. In addition, the proposed scheme uses a centralized NAT structure that prevents undesired disconnections during handovers and achieves a smaller handoff delay compared with other schemes.

So, the length of the packet for the proposed system changes according to the source data although the message bits per packet are constant. The number of symbols per packet of the proposed system is smaller than that of the conventional direct sequence spread spectrum multiple access (DS/SSMA) ALOHA system. Therefore, the proposed system is expected for improving the throughput performance of the conventional DS/SSMA ALOHA system.

To overcome the complexity and costs of complete frame-TDD boundary synchronization in the network, a combined channel assignment (CA) and antenna array (AA) approach is proposed to mitigate interference. First a rotated-interleaved CA (RICA) scheme is applied, which exploits sector antenna directivity to reject the majority of interferers by receiving them through the antenna side and back lobes. Combined with RICA, an AA system is used in the base station side to further reduce intersector interference during both transmission and reception phases. For the worst-case interference scenario an unsynchronized TDD scheme, the proposed methodology achieves a 51.5% improvement in the average channel capacity while it considerably improves the uplink availability. An advantage of this approach is that it considers only low-complexity AA system configurations, thereby optimizing the corresponding cost","PeriodicalId":248766,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE 16th International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114670491","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}

However, the generation of a large number of spatially correlated shadow fading values, using for example the Cholesky decomposition of the corresponding correlation matrix, is computationally complex and requires a large amount of memory. In this paper an efficient low complexity alternative is proposed, where each new fading value is generated based only on the correlation with selected neighbouring values in the map. This results in a significant reduction of the computational complexity and memory requirements. It is shown that taking a small number of neighbouring values into account is sufficient to achieve relatively small correlation errors in the generated shadow fading maps","PeriodicalId":248766,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE 16th International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121376400","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}

The goal of this paper is to develop a bandwidth efficient approach for service discovery in mobile ad-hoc networks. The main contribution of this paper is a novel track-based hybrid service discovery scheme. The proposed scheme performs service discovery based on the one dimensional proactive structure (e.g. tracks), instead of the existing two dimensional proactive structures (e.g. zones). This scheme can lead to reduced proactive traffic due to its light-weight organization of the hybrid structure. The density of proactive tracks is adapted to network traffic pattern dynamically for less proactive traffic. We simulated the Track-based approach in ns-2 network simulator with various network scales and mobility, and compared the performance with pure reactive (e.g. flooding) and Zone-based hybrid (e.g. bordercasting) protocols. Preliminary results show that, the track:-based approach achieved better efficient trade-offs between control packet overhead and querying success rate with minimal proactive costs among all the approaches compared","PeriodicalId":248766,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE 16th International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124837777","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}

According to this commonality, we theoretically formulate the performance of cellular systems with multihop relaying in terms of outage probability and spectral efficiency using the same methodology to formulate the performance of cellular systems with rate adaptation.
