11 Physical Carrier Sensing - revisited Physical carrier sensing Assume channel idle if carrier less than threshold Current implementations: Fixed threshold à arbitrary point of performance What if we make it dynamic à Optimal operation point to improve the performance of the system Page 11 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

12 Dynamic Physical Carrier Sensing Adaptive threshold as a function of transmitter-receiver distance and receive power Two solutions: [Jing et. al. 04] Unique carrier sensing threshold throughout the network Requires info exchange [Veeravali et. al. 04] Heterogeneous carrier sensing thresholds in the network Local decisions Fairness could be an issue Practical issues: Limits on threshold antenna sensitivity Estimation and measurements Page 12 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

13 Benefits of Power Control Control Factor for Power Control D SINR RX = S I + N > γ i i Tx Rx Control Factor for CST tuning How many power levels are needed to achieve the same control granularity as tuning the carrier sense threshold? Page 13 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

14 Transmission Power Control Choose transmit power levels to maximize physical spatial reuse Tune MAC to ensure nodes transmit simultaneously when possible Spatial reuse = network capacity / link capacity Client 2 AP 1 AP 2 Concurrent transmissions increase spa4al reuse Client 2 AP 2 Client 1 AP 1 Client 1 Spa$al Reuse = 1 Spa$al Reuse = 2 14 Page 14 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

17 802.11b Channels Splits 2.4 GHz band into 11 channels of 22 MHz each Channels 1, 6 and 11 don t overlap IEEE b also operates in the highly populated 2.4 GHz ISM band (2.40 to GHz), which provides only 83 MHz of spectrum to accommodate a variety of other products, including cordless phones, microwave ovens, other WLANs, and WPANs such as Bluetooth Maximum allowable radiated emission limited to 100 mw Page 17 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

18 802.11a Channels Page 18 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

19 802.11g/n Channels Page 19 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

20 Summary Table of IEEE (Wi-Fi) Family Page 20 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

21 Proper Usage of Channels Page 21 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

22 Channel Assignment Page 22 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

23 Channel Assignment Page 23 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

24 Issues - Fairness Page 24 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

25 Issues - Utilization Transmitter-receiver pairs use independent channels that don t overlap to avoid interference. Realistically, transmitter power output is NOT uniform at all frequencies of the channel. Channel A Channel B Channel C Channel D Fixed Block of Radio Frequency Spectrum PROBLEM: Transmitted power of some freqs. < max. permissible limit Results in lower channel capacity and inefficient usage of the spectrum Power Channel A Channel B Channel C Channel D Real Usage Wastage of spectrum Page 25 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

26 Multi-Channel Communication Multiple Channels available in IEEE channels in b 12 channels in a Utilizing multiple channels can improve throughput Allow simultaneous transmissions 1 1 defer Single channel 2 Multiple Channels Page 26 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

27 Problem Statement Using k channels does not translate into throughput improvement by a factor of k Nodes listening on different channels cannot talk to each other 1 2 Constraint: Each node has only a single transceiver Capable of listening to one channel at a time Goal: Design a MAC protocol that utilizes multiple channels to improve overall performance Modify DCF to work in multi-channel environment Page 27 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

28 Multi-Channel Hidden Terminals Consider the following naïve protocol Static channel assignment (based on node ID) Communication takes place on receiver s channel Sender switches its channel to receiver s channel before transmitting Page 28 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

29 Multi-Channel Hidden Terminals Channel 1 Channel 2 RTS A B C A sends RTS Page 29 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

30 Multi-Channel Hidden Terminals Channel 1 Channel 2 CTS A B C B sends CTS C does not hear CTS because C is listening on channel 2 Page 30 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

31 Multi-Channel Hidden Terminals Channel 1 Channel 2 DATA RTS A B C C switches to channel 1 and transmits RTS Collision occurs at B Page 31 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

32 Nasipuri s Protocol Assumes N transceivers per host Capable of listening to all channels simultaneously Sender searches for an idle channel and transmits on the channel [Nasipuri99WCNC] Extensions: channel selection based on channel condition on the receiver side [Nasipuri00VTC] Disadvantage: High hardware cost Page 32 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

33 Wu s Protocol [Wu00ISPAN] Assumes 2 transceivers per host One transceiver always listens on control channel Negotiate channels using RTS/CTS/RES RTS/CTS/RES packets sent on control channel Sender includes preferred channels in RTS Receiver decides a channel and includes in CTS Sender transmits RES (Reservation) Sender sends DATA on the selected data channel Page 33 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

34 Wu s Protocol (cont.) Advantage No synchronization required Disadvantage Each host must have 2 transceivers Per-packet channel switching can be expensive Control channel bandwidth is an issue Too small: control channel becomes a bottleneck Too large: waste of bandwidth Optimal control channel bandwidth depends on traffic load, but difficult to dynamically adapt Page 34 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

35 Multi-Channel MAC (MMAC) Protocol Assumptions Each node is equipped with a single transceiver The transceiver is capable of switching channels Channel switching delay is approximately 250us Per-packet switching not recommended Occasional channel switching not to expensive Multi-hop synchronization is achieved by other means Page 35 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

36 Multi-Channel MAC (MMAC) Divide time into beacon intervals At the beginning of each beacon interval, all nodes must listen to a predefined common channel for a fixed duration of time (ATIM window) Nodes negotiate channels using ATIM messages Nodes switch to selected channels after ATIM window for the rest of the beacon interval Page 36 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

37 Preferred Channel List (PCL) Each node maintains PCL Records usage of channels inside the transmission range High preference (HIGH) Already selected for the current beacon interval Medium preference (MID) No other vicinity node has selected this channel Low preference (LOW) This channel has been chosen by vicinity nodes Count number of nodes that selected this channel to break ties Page 37 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

38 Channel Negotiation In ATIM window, sender transmits ATIM to the receiver Sender includes its PCL in the ATIM packet Receiver selects a channel based on sender s PCL and its own PCL Order of preference: HIGH > MID > LOW Tie breaker: Receiver s PCL has higher priority For LOW channels: channels with smaller count have higher priority Receiver sends ATIM-ACK to sender including the selected channel Sender sends ATIM-RES to notify its neighbors of the selected channel Page 38 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

52 Directional Communication Received Power (Tx Gain) * (Rx Gain) Tx Gain = Transmit gain in the direction of receiver Rx Gain = Receive gain in the direction of the transmitter Receive Beam Transmit Beam B A C When C transmits directionally Node A sufficiently close to receive in omni mode Node C and A are Directional-Omni (DO) neighbors Nodes C and B are not DO neighbors Page 52 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

53 Directional Communication Receive Beam Transmit Beam B A C When C transmits directionally Node B receives packets from C only in directional mode C and B are Directional-Directional (DD) neighbors Page 53 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

54 Advantage of Directional Antenna Spatial reuse Possible to carry out multiple simultaneous transmissions in the same neighborhood Higher gain Greater transmission range than omni-directional Two distant nodes can communicate with a single hop Routes with fewer hops Page 54 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

65 Spatial Fairness of Different nodes have different neighbors à experience different contention environments. Nodes at the overlapping coverage area of the WLANs suffer from lower throughput Page 65 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

66 Use of Directional Antenna Directional antenna is a well known method to reduce the interference and to increase the range and the capacity for wireless networks. Fairness relieved through interference reduction Page 66 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

72 Performance Evaluation NS-2 simulator is used b with transmission rate 11 Mbps. Transmission range of 250m and carrier sensing range is 550m. All nodes are stationary. UDP traffics packets with average packet size 1000 bytes. Four way handshake (RTS/CTS/DATA/ACK) is used. Simulated duration of 50 seconds and each point is averaged from 5 independent runs. Page 72 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

73 Simulation Scenarios Infrastructure mode is used. APs are upgraded with S-MAC of 4 sectors (1 Tx & 4 Rx). All STAs still use omni directional antenna (regular MAC). Network of 2x2 grid of overlapping Each AP has 40 clients that are distributed uniformly in its coverage area. Page 73 Spring 2013 CS 795/895 - Wireless Networked Systems

74 Simulation Results Improvement arises from reduced interference with sector antennas and reduced collision from the S-MAC protocol. Total throughput does not change significantly as the number of sectors increases from 2 to 4. No significant change was found with different antenna orientations.
