Wireless Infrastructure and Ad Hoc Network Integration無線基礎設施及自組織網絡集成

總結
Wireless networks have been widely deployed in recent years to provide high-speed Internet access to mobile users. In traditional IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs, all users directly connect to an access point (AP) and all packets are forwarded by the AP. This leads to limited coverage, low load-balancing capability and hence throughput.

In this invention, an infrastructure-based IEEE 802.11 wireless network architecture, which has been widely deployed for broadband access, is introduced so as to achieve high availability and high throughput for multimedia access. Such architecture, termed WIANI (Wireless Infrastructure and Ad-Hoc Network Integration), allows mobile users connect to APs through multiple hops and so autonomously forms local groups for communication. Furthermore, the users may take advantage of the ad hoc connections to forward local data and hence alleviating the traffic load through the AP and increasing the network capacity. In traditional WLAN, a node must be located within the coverage area of some AP to receive wireless services. WIANI extends the coverage area by ad-hoc connections, which reduces the APs required to provide wireless services in the same area, and deployment cost thus reduces.

Using simulation, we show that our protocol improves system throughput and reduce packet delivery delay.
技術優勢
1. Extended wireless coverage and reduced deployment cost
2. Enhanced performance
3. Better balanced for the traffic load
技術應用
- Ubiquitous broadband Internet access
