RADHIOS - Research on AD Hoc and Infrastructured 802.11 Networks with Open Source Software

: Overview

In this project, we aim to perform 802.11 measurements in order to validate markov chain-based packet losses models; to evaluate the performance of rate and power control, and channel assignment algorithms in an indoor 802.11 environment; and to use software radios to validate game-theoretic models for cognitive radios.

: Topics

  • Wireless measurements
  • Ad hoc routing
  • Channel assignment
  • Rate control adaptation
  • Cognitive radios
  • Power control
  • Channel interference
  • Wireless mesh networks
