While these building blocks are well designed, we point out some unwelcome features for these building blocks. We also give out suggestions to diminish the proposed problems.展开更多

Aiming at the problems which cannot be solved by the specifications export, this paper proposed a MAC frame analytical method and a PHY protocol type detection algorithm based on parsing the IEEE 802.11packets captured by the library Libpcap. The packet structure and the length of the frame preamble (18 or 26 bytes) are presented. Then the methods of transforming byte-order and resolving sub-fields are given. A detection algorithm of PHY protocol type is proposed based on the experiments and examples are given to verify these methods. This work can be a reference for the R & D related to link layer frame analysis.展开更多

Nodes in a MANET are free to move and organize themselves in an arbitrary fashion. Energy-efficient design is a significant challenge due to the characteristics of MANETs such as distributed control, constantly changing network topology, and mobile users with limited power supply. The IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol includes a power saving mechanism, but it has many limitations. A new energy-efficient MAC protocol (EE-MAC) is proposed in this paper. It is shown that EE-MAC performs better than IEEE 802.11 power saving mode and exceeds IEEE 802.11 with respect to balancing network throughput and energy savings.展开更多

However, that is very difficult because of the inherent characteristics of the wireless channel and the frequent changes of network topology caused by nodes movement. An Ad hoc QoS Multicasting (AQM) protocol can solve this problem by previously reserving the neighbor nodes for tracking resource availability. By considering QoS restrictions of transport delay, loss ratio, bandwidth requirement, delay jitter, and throughout, and by finding the adaptive routing, the AQM protocol can obviously improve the efficiency of multicastsession. The results of network simulation show that QoS is essentially applicable to Ad hoc networks.展开更多
