  • Performance improvement of selective unidirectional links in cluster based routing
    Sonal A. Bhople, Lata L. Ragha

    In order to operate as efficiently as possible, appropriate on-demand routing protocols have to be incorporated in the ad hoc networks. Most common routing protocols, simply assume that all network links are bidirectional, and thus may need additional protocol actions to remove unidirectional links from route computations. The proposed algorithm makes use of selective unidirectional links so that the overhead is minimized and connectivity is improved which in turn improves the packet delivery ratio in mobile networks. The proposed protocol also efficiently minimizes the flooding traffic during route discovery and speeds up this process by clustering.
  • A cognitive approach to spectrum sensing in virtual unlicensed wireless network

    Proceedings of the International Conference on Advances in Computing Communication and Control Icac3 09, 2009
    Today's wireless networks are characterized by a fixed spectrum assignment policy. However, a large portion of the assigned spectrum is used sporadically and geographical variations in the utilization of assigned spectrum ranges from 15% to 85% with a high variance in time. The limited available spectrum and the inefficiency in the spectrum usage necessitate a new communication paradigm to exploit the existing wireless spectrum opportunistically. In contrast to current systems where the spectrum allocation is static, future cognitive radio devices will be able to seek and use in a dynamic way the frequencies for network access; this will be done by autonomous detection of vacant bands in the radio spectrum. This new networking paradigm is referred to as NeXt Generation Networks or Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) or cognitive radio networks. In this paper the novel functionalities and current research challenges of the cognitive networks are explained in detail. More specifically, a brief overview of the cognitive radio technology is provided and the cognitive network architecture is introduced. Moreover, the cognitive network functions such as spectrum management, spectrum mobility and spectrum sharing are explained in detail. Open research issues in these areas are also outlined.
