摘要:
A method and system provide multiple-access control and frequency band allocation, and transmission time sharing among multiple users in orthogonal frequency-division multiple-access (OFDMA) and time-division multiple-access (TDMA) networks. The method can be applied to uplinks and downlinks of multi-user, multi-carrier communication networks. Under a total transmission-power minimization constraint, the method can allocate carriers and transmission time to users optimally, and at the same time, can guarantee a data rate or equivalently a latency requirement of each user.

A network includes a master and a set of slaves that communicate orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and time division multiple access (TDMA) symbols on sub-carriers. A master broadcasts to the set of slaves using downlinks and all of the sub-carriers, a broadcast polling packet including data packets for each slave and sub-carrier assignments for the slaves. Each slave, in response to receiving the downlink polling packet, transmits simultaneously a response packet to the master using uplinks and the assigned sub-carriers. The master then transmits to the set of slave using the downlinks and all of the sub-carriers, a group acknowledgement packet, wherein the broadcast polling packet, the response packet, and the group acknowledgement packet comprise one superframe in one communication cycle, and wherein the broadcasting on the downlinks and the transmitting on the uplinks are disjoint in time.

A method allocates bandwidth to channels in an orthogonal frequency division multiple access and time division multiple access (TDMA) network. The network includes a master device (master) communicating with a set of slave devices (slaves). The master defines a set Ψm of logical indices ν of a set of N physical subcarriers for a set of M data streams to be allocated to a set of Nd logical data subcarriers according to Ψm={ν|ν=iM+m, i=0,1,2, . . . , d−1}, where d=Nd/M. The set of N data subcarriers is mapped to the set of Nd logical subcarriers according to the logical indices, and the data subcarriers are allocated to the logical subcarriers.

A network includes a master node (master) and a set of slave nodes (slaves). The network uses orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and time division multiple access (TDMA) symbols on sub-carriers. During a first downlink transmission from the master to the set of slaves using downlinks and all of the sub-carriers, a broadcast polling packet including data packets for each slave and sub-carrier assignments for the slaves is broadcast. Each slave transmits simultaneously to the master using uplinks and the assigned sub-carriers, a first response packet after receiving the broadcast polling packet. The master then broadcasts using the downlinks and all of the sub-carriers, a group acknowledgement packet, wherein the broadcast polling packet, the response packet, and the group acknowledgement packet include one superframe in one communication cycle, and wherein the broadcasting on the downlinks and the transmitting on the uplinks are disjoint in time.

A method localizes a set of nodes in a wireless network that includes a target node having unknown location and a set of anchor nodes having known locations. The set of anchor nodes is partitioned into subsets of anchor nodes, wherein each subset has at least three anchor nodes. A distance from the target node to each of anchor nodes in each subset is measured, to estimate possible locations of the target node. A geometric constraint is applied to each estimated location to determine valid locations, which are then filtered to determine filtered locations. The filtered locations are averaged to determine an initial estimate of the location.

An ad-hoc wireless communication network includes multiple nodes. Each node maintains a routing table. The routing table is constructed by broadcasting route request packets from a source node. The request packet includes an address of a destination node. Intermediate nodes in the network receiving the request packet, determine power and delay cost associated with the intermediate node participating in the route. If the cost is less than a threshold value, then the intermediate node participates in the routing of packets for other nodes. The intermediate node then sends a reply packet back to the source node. The reply packet includes the intermediate node addresses, as well as the power and delay costs. The source can thus construct the routing table. The source node can select a particular node for transferring application data packets based on either the power cost, the delay cost or both costs.
