“…We develop a local communication system based on Android studio 2.3.3 by WFD. To implement the handover mechanism, a service discovery mechanism of WFD [41], [42] is utilized to obtain/publish the handover decision information of the groups. To evaluate the performance of the system, we utilize 13 off-the-shelf and non-rooted Android devices equipped with Android 6.0 or 7.0, including 3 HUAWEI Honor 8, 2 SAMSUNG Galaxy C7000 and 8 Redmi Note 4X.…”

Wireless communication demands increase sharply with the explosive growth of mobile devices. The communications mainly depend on the infrastructure-based networks, e.g., WLANs and cellular networks. However, such wireless connections may be unavailable in crowded areas (e.g., concert and conference hall) or interrupted by infrastructure failures caused by earthquake or tsunami. These promote the evolution of local communication systems over device-to-device communication, such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Direct (WFD). However, none of existing studies construct a full-featured local communication system, and they do not consider how to support the user mobility either. In this paper, we implement and evaluate the performance of a WFD-based local communication system. First of all, we improve the intra-group communication by the native implementation of WFD on Android platform, and propose an application-layer forwarding solution for the inter-group communication, which can be applied to three or more connected groups. Then, we put forward a self-adaptive handover mechanism taking user mobility and node failures into account. To deal with the uncertainty in handover decision procedure, a fuzzy logic based normalized quantitative decision algorithm (FNQD) with the weights derived from fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) is utilized. Finally, we evaluate the performance of the system through both simulation and experiment analysis. Results show that we can get a maximum throughput of 31.7 Mbps for the intra-group communication and a maximum goodput of 4.76 Mbps for the inter-group communication. What's more, mobile devices could perform various types of handover according to their roles and status, which could improve the robustness of the local communication system.

“…It is worth noting that some parameters of the simulation are not realistic, such as the value defined for the loss exponent of the propagation model. Shahin et al [26] propose to incorporate an alert message in the frame of the optional Wi-Fi Direct service discovery mechanism. In the proposal, it is not necessary to be a member of a group to transmit data.…”

The high cost of IEEE 802.11p-compliant devices and the lack of a widely adopted standard motivate the search for alternative methods for vehicular communication. As a consequence, and due to the ubiquity of smartphones, we see an increasing number of proposals based on Wi-Fi Direct, especially related to the integration of pedestrians in VANETs. Nevertheless, given the complexity of real experimentation, it is difficult to assess the ability of Wi-Fi Direct to offer connectivity in the vehicular environment on a large scale, leading to the evaluation through simulation. In order to verify the ability of a simulation model of reproducing the Wi-Fi Direct behavior, we analyze the performance of a safety application based on the communication range, packet delivery rate, and packet inter-reception time. In V2P scenarios, with and without line of sight, with varying vehicle speed, measurements using smartphones are performed and their results compared with those of OMNeT++ simulator. The results indicate, apart from the simulator’s accuracy, that the connection establishment time hinders the use of Wi-Fi Direct as a replacement to 802.11p. As an outcome of this observation, we evaluate a new transmission method for Wi-Fi Direct based on beacon stuffing, which mitigates the long connection establishment issue.

“…But, this design cannot be compatible with the Wi-Fi direct specification. Furthermore, references [29] and [35] propose to attach messages by modifying service discovery request frames and probe request frames in the Wi-Fi direct protocol to provide communication services. However, the proposed schemes in [29] and [35] cannot guarantee successful delivery and do not consider power saving.…”

Recently, smartphones are commonly equipped with Wi-Fi direct modules, which can be used to support infrastructure-less communications. Considering an emergency scene, communication infrastructures are damaged or unable to operate. Affected people in the emergency site cannot communicate with each other and with the outside world until rescue personnel establishes an emergency network for them. In this paper, we aim to provide an emergency communication method based on Wi-Fi direct technology. Originally, Wi-Fi direct capable devices rely on a Wi-Fi direct group mechanism to operate. However, we observe that forming Wi-Fi direct groups may not be appropriated in the emergency scenario. Besides, Wi-Fi direct capable devices carried by affected people should operate in power saving mode when emergency. In this paper, we model the target scenario as an emergency Wi-Fi direct device scheduling (EWDS) problem. We then propose centralized and distributed schemes to solve the EWDS problem. The proposed schemes schedule devices' active and sleep timings with the guarantee that all devices can join the network within a bounded time and devices can exchanges packets with each other effectively. Furthermore, by the proposed distributed schemes, devices can operate locally and unsynchronized without a central controller. We evaluate the proposed schemes by simulations and prototyping implementation, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of our designs.
