Adv Wireless Netw Concept
The course is roughly divided into three parts. The first part offers an introduction to the basic 802.11 mechanisms (channel access, rate adaptation, power saving) covering both the legacy 802.11a/b/g MAC protocols as well as the recent 802.11n MIMO standard. The second part presents the state-of-the-art in wireless mesh networking (WMN), discussing both traditional topics (link quality based routing, WMN deployments, measurements and evaluation) and novel techniques such as opportunistic routing and network coding. Finally, the third part of the course presents recent advances in wireless networking, such as cognitive radio networks, white space networking, advanced MAC protocol design, and cross-layer design. Each week, we will discuss two papers. A choice of papers from top networking and systems conferences (MobiCom, SIGCOMM, NSDI, INFOCOM) will be given for the students to pick which ones to present. All students are required to present 1 or 2 papers, to read the papers scheduled for presentation each week, to participate in discussions in class, and to submit reviews for a subset of the papers. Each student will also conduct a semester-long research project involving design, simulation and/or testbed implementation. The projects can be done individually or in teams of 3-4 students.
