Provides comprehensive and authoritative introduction, Wireless Ad hoc and Sensor Networks: Protocols, Performance, and Control test this theory, architecture, and technology needed to implement quality of service (QoS) in a variety of communication networks. Based on years of research and practical experience, this book discusses the technical concepts underlying the design, implementation, research, and invention of both wired and wireless networks. Starting with the picture of the network and QoS control, he systematically explores timely areas such as Lyapunov analysis, congestion control of high speed networks, admission control based on hybrid system theory, distributed power control various types of networks, link state routing using QoS parameters, and predictive congestion control.
