Application of a Packaged Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor to Outdoor Optical Fiber Cabinets for Environmental Monitoring

Outdoor optical fiber cabinets are generally installed along roadsides where environmental conditions, such as sun exposure, rain, and dust, can cause damage to the cabinets. Furthermore, high temperatures and unexpected impacts that cause cabinet deformation may damage the networkequipment inside the cabinets, affecting the quality of communications. This paper developed an optical fiber sensing system for […]

A comparative study on RIP and OSPF protocols

Routing of data packets is one of the important process in the internet. A routing protocol specifies the method of communication among routers used in the inter connection of networks. There are number of routing protocols which have application on the internet like OSPF, RIP, EIGRP, OPNET, IGRP, etc. Every protocol has its own feature of […]

Performance Evaluation of IEEE 802.15.4k Priority Channel Access with DSSS PHY

Low-energy critical infrastructure monitoring (LECIM) applications are rapidly increasing. A communication protocol developed to fulfill the LECIM requirements is the novel IEEE 802.15.4k standard. In this paper, we study the impact of priority channel access (PCA), a feature defined for high priority message transmissions in the IEEE 802.15.4k standard, in LECIM DSSS physical layer (PHY). […]

Proportional Sharing in Distributed Dynamic Spectrum Access-Based Networks

Dynamic spectrum access (DSA) is a promising technology to alleviate the exhaustion of spectral resources. To realize DSA, new technologies that enable fast discovery of the unused spectrum along with efficient spectrum management must be developed. In this paper, we propose a novel scanning algorithm and access etiquette to provide secondary devices differentiated spectrum access […]

Modeling and Analyzing Duty-Cycling, Pipelined-Scheduling MACs for Linear Sensor Networks

Linear sensor networks (LSNs) have recently attracted increasing attention due to the vast requirements on the monitoring and surveillance of a structure or area with a linear topology. However, there is little work on the network modeling and analysis based on a duty-cycling MAC protocol for LSNs. In this paper, we model a duty-cycling MAC […]
