SpringerBriefs in Computer Science Cross-Technology Coexistence Design for Wireless Networks - Junmei Yao Kaishun Wu Kartoniert (TB)

This book introduces readers to the fundamentals of the cross-technology coexistence problem in heterogeneous wireless networks. It also highlights a range of mechanisms designed to combat this problem and improve network performance including protocol design theoretical analysis and experimental evaluation.In turn the book proposes three mechanisms that can be combined to combat the cross-technology coexistence problem and improve network performance. First the authors present a fast signal identification method. It provides the basis for the subsequent protocol design and allows heterog eneous devices to adopt proper transmission strategies. Second the authors present two cross-technology interference management mechanisms in both the time domain and the frequency domain which can mitigate interference and increase transmission opportunities for heterogeneous devices thus improving network performance. Third they present a cross-technology communication mechanism based on symbol-level energy modulation which allows heterogeneous devices to transmit information directly without a gateway improving transmission efficiency and paving the way for new applications in IoT scenarios. Lastly they outline several potential research directions to further improve the efficiency of cross-technology coexistence. This book is intended for researchers computer scientists and engineers who are interested in the research areas of wireless networking wireless communication mobile computing and Internet of Things. Advanced-level students studying these topics will benefit from the book as well.
