CROSS-LAYER MULTI-CHANNEL MAC PROTOCOL COMBINED WITH QOS SEARCH FOR COGNITIVE WIRELESS MULTI-HOP NETWORKS

In cognitive wireless multi-hop networks,the spectrum resources are highly variable and diverse.A cross-layer Household multi-channel MAC protocol combined with QoS search was proposed.The protocol combines the on-demand QoS search with dynamic spectrum allocation via cross-layer method,which only permits the transmission nodes to participate in th

Railway tracks must be managed appropriately because their conditions significantly affect railway safety.Safety is ensured through inspections by track maintenance staff and maintenance based on measurements using dedicated track geometry cars.However, maintaining regional railway tracks using conventional methods is becoming difficult because of
