摘要:
A data communication for a handoff mobile unit is maintained by data forwarding through neighboring mobile units in indoor wireless cellular communication networks operates such that, when the master unit has no available channels, the mobile unit switches over to master status to create an ad hoc cell. The mobile unit then pages neighboring slave mobile units for data forwarding assistance. The mobile unit chooses one or more slave mobile units and establishes wireless links with the chosen slave mobile units. These chosen mobile units then have two masters; one the master unit of the cell and the other the handoff mobile unit which has created the ad hoc cell. A list of the slave mobile units in the ad hoc cell is sent to the network server, and data communication proceeds with data forwarding through the chosen mobile slave units. When a channel becomes available with the master unit for the cell, the handoff mobile unit becomes a slave mobile unit to the master unit and the ad hoc cell is dissolved.

摘要:
A vehicle-to-vehicle communications system that employs a challenge/response based process to ensure that information received from a vehicle is reliable. The subject vehicle transmits a challenge question to the suspect vehicle to determine whether the suspect vehicle is a reliable source of information. The process increases a number of tokens in a token bucket for the suspect vehicle if the response to the challenge question is correct, and decreases the number of tokens in the token bucket for the suspect vehicle if the response to the challenge question is incorrect. The subject vehicle accepts a message from the suspect vehicle if the number of tokens in the bucket for the suspect vehicle is greater than a predetermined upper threshold, and discards the message from the suspect vehicle if the number of tokens in the bucket for the suspect vehicle is less than a predetermined lower threshold.
摘要:
A system and method for providing energy-efficient support of continuous aggregate queries in a sensor network by efficiently orchestrating the collection and transmission of data gathered by a collective set of sensors to ensure conformance to a specified QoI bound. To ensure this, the sink communicates a potentially different value of precision range or interval to each individual sensor; the sensor is adapted to only report its samples back to the sink if the sample values fall outside this specified range. An additional way to specify temporally varying precision ranges to an individual sensor or groups of sensors is provided without having to explicitly communicate the precision bounds for these different time instants. Using temporally varying precision ranges permits the exploitation of temporal correlation among the sample values recorded by an individual sensor to further reduce the need for reports from the sensors. This approach is more energy-efficient and improves performance of long-running pervasive environment monitoring applications.

Providing packet-based service differentiation on packet-based networks involves first determining information associated with packets as a basis for inferring connection characteristics associated with the respective packet, as the packets pass though a particular network node. Statistical measures based on numerical values of, for example, Round Trip Time (RTT), is used to characterize connections as being, in this case “long” or “short”. “Long” connections are given a higher priority than “short” connections. Accordingly, the assigned priority associated with particular packets can be used to adjust drop probabilities for those packets.

Master-Slave Queue-State-Dependent Packet Scheduling Policies use the information about Master and Slave queues to achieve better system performance. The scheduling methodology is implemented at the Master and therefore has access to information about the Master queues. Different kinds of information about the queues such as backlog, size, delays can be used.

A method for reducing device discovery delays in frequency hopping based ad-hoc networks is disclosed. According to the method, an activity being performed is periodically interrupted to scan for inquiry messages from other devices for a pre-determined period time period. Processing of a received inquiry message, in accordance with normal procedures applicable to the particular frequency hopping based ad-hoc network, occurs after expiry of a random time period. At the end of the predetermined time period, the original activity is returned to. A device for use in frequency hopping based ad-hoc networks that embodies the described method and a computer program product for such a device, are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to a computer implemented system for transferring data over a master driven TDD/TDMA based wireless network operating with minimum delay in end-to-end transmission by achieving optimum time slot utilization by minimizing the number of baseband packets created for each Link layer packet, where each baseband packet of is a size corresponding to one of a permitted set of capacities ‘C1, C2, . . . Cn’. The system also optimizes sharing of bandwidth, higher link utilization and low baseband packet transmission queue occupancy by adaptive scheduling of the transmission of the baseband packets in the queues. The invention also provides a method and computer program product for the above system.
