Overview
Topic status: We're looking for students to study this topic.
Wireless networked systems are being increasingly investigated for various applications due to their good scalability, fast deployment, and low implementation and maintenance costs. However, compared with wired systems, wireless ones introduce longer transmission delays, bigger jitter and higher rates of packet loss. These problems could result in unpredictable system behaviors which may not be acceptable in many services and applications. Our projects on this topic aim to improve overall performance of wireless networked applications through avoiding data packet dropouts, reducing network-introduced communication latency and jitter, and better scheduling wireless network resources. The methodology of the cross-layer design and optimization will be used in this project to develop new technologies and network protocols. Cross-layer design is an efficient and popular method for designing protocols especially for wireless networks; however, it will actively violate conventional layered architecture for better performance.
