Abstract:This paper proposes the design of a scalable and reliable QoS architecture for mobile ad-hoc networks, which consists of i) a multi-path routing protocol, ii) a call admission control (CAC) scheme and iii) a congestion control mechanism. The multi-path routing protocol utilizes erasure code techniques for producing replicated fragments for each packet, to enhance reliability. Important fragments can be sent through the paths with strong connectivity and high delivery probability. While it receives an assured n… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
