  • Logical Link Control and Channel Scheduling for Multichannel Underwater Sensor Networks
    ICST Transactions on Mobile Communications and Applications Research Article Logical Link Control and Channel Scheduling for Multichannel Underwater Sensor Networks Jun Li ∗, Mylene` Toulgoat, Yifeng Zhou, and Louise Lamont Communications Research Centre Canada, 3701 Carling Avenue, Ottawa, ON. K2H 8S2 Canada Abstract With recent developments in terrestrial wireless networks and advances in acoustic communications, multichannel technologies have been proposed to be used in underwater networks to increase data transmission rate over bandwidth-limited underwater channels. Due to high bit error rates in underwater networks, an efficient error control technique is critical in the logical link control (LLC) sublayer to establish reliable data communications over intrinsically unreliable underwater channels. In this paper, we propose a novel protocol stack architecture featuring cross-layer design of LLC sublayer and more efficient packet- to-channel scheduling for multichannel underwater sensor networks. In the proposed stack architecture, a selective-repeat automatic repeat request (SR-ARQ) based error control protocol is combined with a dynamic channel scheduling policy at the LLC sublayer. The dynamic channel scheduling policy uses the channel state information provided via cross-layer design. It is demonstrated that the proposed protocol stack architecture leads to more efficient transmission of multiple packets over parallel channels. Simulation studies are conducted to evaluate the packet delay performance of the proposed cross-layer protocol stack architecture with two different scheduling policies: the proposed dynamic channel scheduling and a static channel scheduling. Simulation results show that the dynamic channel scheduling used in the cross-layer protocol stack outperforms the static channel scheduling. It is observed that, when the dynamic channel scheduling is used, the number of parallel channels has only an insignificant impact on the average packet delay.

  • Physical Layer Overview
    ELEC3030 (EL336) Computer Networks S Chen Physical Layer Overview • Physical layer forms the basis of all networks, and we will first revisit some of fundamental limits imposed on communication media by nature Recall a medium or physical channel has finite Spectrum bandwidth and is noisy, and this imposes a limit Channel bandwidth: on information rate over the channel → This H Hz is a fundamental consideration when designing f network speed or data rate 0 H Type of medium determines network technology → compare wireless network with optic network • Transmission media can be guided or unguided, and we will have a brief review of a variety of transmission media • Communication networks can be classified as switched and broadcast networks, and we will discuss a few examples • The term “physical layer protocol” as such is not used, but we will attempt to draw some common design considerations and exams a few “physical layer standards” 13 ELEC3030 (EL336) Computer Networks S Chen Rate Limit • A medium or channel is defined by its bandwidth H (Hz) and noise level which is specified by the signal-to-noise ratio S/N (dB) • Capability of a medium is determined by a physical quantity called channel capacity, defined as C = H log2(1 + S/N) bps • Network speed is usually given as data or information rate in bps, and every one wants a higher speed network: for example, with a 10 Mbps network, you may ask yourself why not 10 Gbps? • Given data rate fd (bps), the actual transmission or baud rate fb (Hz) over the medium is often different to fd • This is for

  • Structure of IEEE 802.11 Packets at Various Physical Layers
    Appendix A: Structure of IEEE 802.11 Packets at Various Physical Layers This appendix gives a detailed description of the structure of packets in IEEE 802.11 for the different physical layers. 1. Packet Format of Frequency Hopping Spread-spectrum Physical Layer (FHSS PHY) The packet is made up of the following elements (Figure A.1): 1.1 Preamble It depends on the physical layer and includes: – Synch: a sequence of 80 bits alterning 0 and 1, used by the physical circuits to select the correct antenna (if more than one are in use), and correct offsets of frequency and synchronization. – SFD: start frame delimiter consists of a pattern of 16 bits: 0000 1100 1011 1101, used to define the beginning of the frame. 1.2 Physical Layer Convergence Protocol Header The Physical Layer Convergence Protocol (PLCP) header is always transmitted at 1 Mbps and carries some logical information used by the physical layer to decode the frame: – Length of word of PLCP PDU (PLW): representing the number of bytes in the packet, useful to the physical layer to detect correctly the end of the packet. – Flag of signalization PLCP (PSF): indicating the supported rate going from 1 to 4.5 Mbps with steps of 0.5 Mbps. Even though the standard gives the combinations of bits for PSF (see Table A.1) to support eight different rates, only the modulations for 1 and 2 Mbps have been defined. – Control error field (HEC): CRC field for error detection of 16 bits (or 32 bits). The polynomial generator used is G(x)=x16 + x12 + x5 +1.

The address is now extended to 16 bits (1st bit indicates long/short 16/8 bits) • Checksum: FCS contains the remainder of a 16-bit CRC calculation of the frame. It may be extended to 32 bits, using a 32-bit CRC • Control: Three types of frames, I, S and U frames. The old protocol uses a sliding window with 3-bit sequence number and the maximum window size is N = 7.
