Adaptive Resource Control in 2-hop Ad-Hoc Networks

This paper presents a simple resource control\ud mechanism with traffic scheduling for 2-hop ad-hoc networks, in\ud which the Request-To-Send (RTS) packet is utilized to deliver\ud feedback information. With this feedback information, the\ud Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) limit of the sources can be\ud controlled to balance the traffic. Furthermore, a bottleneck\ud transmission scheduling scheme is introduced to provide fairness\ud between local and forwarding flows. The proposed mechanism is\ud modeled and evaluated using the well-known 20-sim dynamic\ud system simulator. Experimental results show that a fairer and\ud more efficient bandwidth utilization can be achieved than\ud without the feedback mechanism. The use of the structured and\ud formalized control-theoretical modeling framework has as\ud advantage that results can be obtained in a fast and efficient way
