Finding such a transform function, detection of the transmitted data using the inversed CIR is the next step. To eliminate the first step in this paper, we implemented channel equalizers serially in the system. Unlike conventional methods, the proposed scheme estimates Inversed channel Impulse Response directly using adaptive algorithms. Frequency domain channel estimators are common and easy to implement in OFDM based system, but comparing to serial structure presented in this paper they are slow and inaccurate. Also for every one tap equalizer implemented in frequency domain we need one division operator for each FFT point while in proposed structure the filter length is fixed and operates on every data Frame. In this paper for an OFDM based system two channel estimation algorithms (RLS and NLMS) have been implemented using the proposed structure and the promising results have been presented. Moreover, by reducing computational complexity the proposed method also outperforms conventional schemes.","PeriodicalId":363625,"journal":{"name":"2008 5th IFIP International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN '08)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114919907","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}

Quantifying network survivability through pure network performance tends to be optimistic since it ignores the availability of the resources of the network at the time of failure. On the other hand, pure availability analysis tends to be too conservative since performance considerations are not taken into account. In this paper, a composite model to accurately measure the survivability of slotted multi-fiber optical packet switching networks is proposed. The end-to-end performance of multi-fiber slotted optical packet switched networks as well as the steady-state availability of the network are modeled. These two models are combined to construct a hierarchical network survivability model. The study shows that the use of a multiple-fiber network configuration provides additional network capacity and increases network survivability. Also, it shows that the use of wavelength conversion increases survivability by resolving the wavelength contention problem.","PeriodicalId":363625,"journal":{"name":"2008 5th IFIP International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN '08)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125947346","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}

To evaluate the performance of the new algorithm, a crosstalk-free version of the original ZeroXY algorithm is developed extended from the Improved ZeroXY algorithm, called the Modified ZeroXY algorithm.

In this paper, first we propose an ELCH (Extending Lifetime of Cluster Head) routing protocol that has self-configuration and hierarchal routing properties. It reforms the existing routing protocols in several aspects and constructs clusters on the basis of radio radius and the number of cluster members. In this method, the clusters in the network are equally distributed.

LMDS is an example of broadband access system operated in EHF millimeter band (e.g. 30 GHz). In millimeter band, the capacity of wireless network will have two major constrains: the impact of millimeter wave channels in physical layer and the channel access method in MAC layer. Improvement in physical layer is usually carried-out by adaptive modulation considering channel state information (CSI). In MAC layer, many adaptive scheduling have also been developed. Combining these two approaches result in many algorithms called cross layer optimization in wireless network. This paper present our first step of evaluation of cross layer optimization performance of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) network applied in millimeter wave channels in tropical region. Based on measurement and related channels data in Surabaya Indonesia, we found that 'rain attenuation', could reach the level 70 dB in the long period of time. Simulation shows the impact of the severity of 'rain channel', i.e. degrade overall throughput or decreases the feasible rate of system. To compensate the degradation by channels and to provide maximum capacity, considering fairness among users, an evaluation of resource allocation via simulation of cross-layer optimization of OFDM Wireless Network in tropical region on millimeter wave channels is being carried out.","PeriodicalId":363625,"journal":{"name":"2008 5th IFIP International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN '08)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128256132","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}

Single WiMAX can cover 10 Kms with broad band support of around 22 Mbps in downlink and 6 Mbps in uplink [7]. Multiple WiMAX base stations (BSs) are needed to cover a thickly populated city or county with large diameter (i.e., above 20 kms, which is very common). To maintain QoS for inter WiMAX BSs traffic, it is important to have a supportive MAC protocol on interconnecting network (referred as backbone). In this paper we propose optical backbone connectivity operating at 2.5 Gbps for inter networking several WiMAX BSs located in various location of large cities/county. We propose a novel hybrid- MAC protocol that caters to the QoS needs for real time service with negligible jitter and provides minimum delay for non-real time data traffic of WiMAX. The backbone delay for best effort traffic has been analyzed under various circumstances of real time as well as non-real time traffic. Furthermore, the results reveal that with reasonable load on the backbone there is hardly any impact on packet delay for even Best Effort services.","PeriodicalId":363625,"journal":{"name":"2008 5th IFIP International Conference on Wireless and Optical Communications Networks (WOCN '08)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123721456","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}
