Hit and Bandwidth Optimal Caching for Wireless Data Access Networks
(University of Waterloo, 2011-01-10)For many data access applications, the availability of the most updated information is a fundamental and rigid requirement. In spite of many technological improvements, in wireless networks, wireless channels (or bandwidth) ... -
A Multi-Radio Interface for Dependable Body Area Network Communications
(University of Waterloo, 2012-01-24)Body Area Networks (BANs) are emerging as a convenient option for patient monitoring. They have shown potential in improving health care services through a network of external or implanted biosensors and actuators collecting ... -
Relay-aided Interference Alignment in Wireless Networks
(University of Waterloo, 2011-04-29)Resource management in wireless networks is one of the key factors in maximizing the overall throughput. Contrary to popular belief, dividing the resources in a dense network does not yield the best results. A method that ... -
Reliable Communications over Heterogeneous Wireless Networks
(University of Waterloo, 2011-01-20)The recent years have seen an enormous advance in wireless communication technology and co-existence of various types of wireless networks, which requires effective inter-networking among the heterogeneous wireless networks ... -
Resource Allocation for Broadband Wireless Access Networks with Imperfect CSI
(University of Waterloo, 2009-08-17)The high deployment and maintenance costs of last mile wireline networks (i.e., DSL and cable networks) have urged service providers to search for new cost-effective solutions to provide broadband connectivity. Broadband ... -
Throughput Optimization in Multi-hop Wireless Networks with Random Access
(University of Waterloo, 2011-05-19)This research investigates cross-layer design in multi-hop wireless networks with random access. Due to the complexity of the problem, we study cross-layer design with a simple slotted ALOHA medium access control (MAC) ...
