Development of an improved link metric for routing protocols in wireless ad-hoc networks.

M. Tech. Electrical engineering. / Discusses the interference and bandwidth adjusted ETX routing metric uses a logical interference model that refers to the interference arising from the Carrier Sensing Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA-CA) based Medium Access Control. This approach of capturing inter-flow is complex and more restrictive. In this dissertation, a more realistic and less restrictive approach based on the information available at the physical layer (signal strength) is used to capture the interference.In contrast to the logical interference model, this has the excellent advantage of measuring the parameters using online data traffic. The question is whether actual capacity improvements can be achieved by considering the physical interference model.
