In this paper, we present an effective cross layer-based video transmission algorithm over multi-hop mobile ad hoc networks. The proposed algorithm selects the most efficient PHY mode of wireless LAN multi-rate service at each node in a distributed way based on the available information at application, MAC, and physical layers in order to minimize end-to-end delay and maintain packet loss rate in tolerable range at the receiver. Finally, experimental results are provided to show superior performance of the proposed algorithm.

The transmission opportunities between nodes in Delay Tolerant Network (DTNs) are uncertain, and routing algorithms in DTNs often need nodes serving as relays for others to carry and forward messages. Due to selfishness, nodes may ask the source to pay a certain reward, and the reward may be varying with time. Moreover, the reward that the source obtains from the destination may also be varying with time. For example, the sooner the destination gets the message, the more rewards the source may obtain. The goal of this paper is to explore efficient ways for the source to maximize its total reward in such complex applications when it uses the probabilistic two-hop routing policy. We first propose a theoretical framework, which can be used to evaluate the total reward that the source can obtain. Then based on the model, we prove that the optimal forwarding policy confirms to the threshold form by the Pontryagin's Maximum Principle. Simulations based on both synthetic and real motion traces show the accuracy of our theoretical framework. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the performance of the optimal forwarding policy with threshold form is better through extensive numerical results, which conforms to the result obtained by the Maximum Principle.

Antagonists of the d -opioid receptor are effective in overcoming resistance against analgesic drugs such as morphine. To identify novel antagonists of the d -opioid receptor that display high potency and low resistance, we performed 3D-QSAR analysis using chemical feature-based pharmacophore models. Chemical features for d -opioid receptor antagonists were generated using quantitative (Catalyst/HypoGen) and qualitative (Catalyst/HipHop) approaches. For HypoGen analysis, we collected 16 peptide and 16 non-peptide antagonists as the training set. The best-fit pharmacophore hypotheses of the two antagonist models comprised identical features, including a hydrophobic aromatic (HAR), a hydrophobic (HY), and a positive ionizable (PI) function. The training set of the HipHop model was constructed with three launched opioid drugs. The best hypothesis from HipHop included four features: an HAR, an HY, a hydrogen bond donor (HBD), and a PI function. Based on these results, we confirm that HY, HAR and PI features are essential for effective antagonism of the d -opioid receptor, and determine the appropriate pharmacophore to design such antagonists.

AODV algorithm is one of the widely used algorithm for wireless ad-hoc environment In AODV, the destination node selects the route with smallest hop count. Since AODV only consider hop count, the selected route could have low capacity link, and degrade QoS. In this paper, we propose a modified AODV algorithm that consider successful transmission rate of each link. Advantage of proposed algorithm is that AODV can support QoS without significant change of the algorithm using modified hop count.

In this paper, we propose a multi-hop cooperative transmission protocol to obtain energy savings in static wireless networks. Each terminal in the network is equipped with a single antenna and each receiver uses equal gain combining technique (EGC) to combine received signals. We also propose a power allocation strategy which optimizes the total transmit power at each stage. Monte-Carlo simulations are presented to evaluate and compare performance of the proposed protocol with the multi-hop direct transmission (MDT) and the cooperative routing protocol proposed by Khadani [8], in terms of the average total transmit power and the average number of required stages.

In an wireless sensor network, energy efficient routing protocol is important for multi-hop transmission because senor nodes are powered by battery. In multi-hop transmission, specifice nodes are used and the battery power becomes low, it induce the asymetric remaining power among the nodes and makes the network lifetime reduced. In this paper, we propose a power-aware routing protocol which determines the routing path considering the remaining power of the nodes. Simulation results shows that the proposed routing scheme minimize the transmission delay and increase the network lifetime.

Distributed relay scheme for wireless ad hoc multi-hop multicast network composed of low-power and low-complexity wireless devices with high density is proposed. The proposed relay scheme is shown to be better than flooding, which is the distributed relay scheme applied to ZigBee, in the outage probability and the multicast transmission rate by simulations.

This paper proposes packet aggregation scheme for considering energy consumption of mobile devices on guaranteeing quality of voice. To our purpose, we analyze VoIP service on wireless multi-hop channel in terms of delay, packet loss and energy consumption when packet aggregation scheme is applied to VoIP service. Moreover, we induce a cost function with considering of tradeoff relation between quality of voice and energy consumption.

IP header compression schemes offer a valuable measure for bandwidth preservation. Such schemes have been practically implemented in infrastructure-based IP networks for point-to-point links. However, minimal research and practical implementation efforts have been conducted in the direction of an IP header compression strategy that can meet the peculiar requirements of multi-hop ad hoc wireless networks. In this paper, we present a practically implemented multi-hop IP header compression scheme using the Robust Header Compression (ROHC) protocol suite. The scheme runs on a novel identifier (ID) based networking architecture, known as an ID-based ad hoc network (IDHOCNET). IDHOCNET additionally solves a number of bottlenecks of pure IP-based ad hoc networks that have emerged owing to IP address auto-configuration service, distributed naming and name resolution, and the role of an IP address as an identifier at the application layer. The proposed scheme was tested on a multi-hop test bed. The results show that the implemented scheme has better gain and requires only O (1) ROHC contexts.

We describe in this paper how to facilitate ad hoc routing with a particle filter in a hostile radio environment for multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks that connect multi-robots. The proposed scheme increases a connection's throughput by exploiting alternative links without going through the procedure of route discovery when link failure happens among multi-robots' networking. The scheme is implemented by using a particle filter to find strongly connected nodes. The filter estimates the probability distribution function in a sample-based manner with N particles. The particles are associated with a weight which represents the probability of the corresponding node to be the node with the best link. At every step of the estimation, the weights of particles are calculated and particles are resampled based on the weights. Since a node with the strongest link status possesses the largest number of particles, we take this node to forward the packets.
