Incorporating network-level knowledge into Quality of Service control mechanisms for wireless LANs. Expansion of Wireless LANs as primary access technology for mobile computing devices has resulted in growing expectations of continuous area coverage and controlled Quality of Service. The work published to date defines QoS control mechanisms for a single WLAN cell, but fails to address challenges of multiple-cell networks. We aim at designing network-wide resource management mechanisms to dynamic ....Incorporating network-level knowledge into Quality of Service control mechanisms for wireless LANs. Expansion of Wireless LANs as primary access technology for mobile computing devices has resulted in growing expectations of continuous area coverage and controlled Quality of Service. The work published to date defines QoS control mechanisms for a single WLAN cell, but fails to address challenges of multiple-cell networks. We aim at designing network-wide resource management mechanisms to dynamically allocate resources to cells and users, taking into account user mobility and radio interference between multiple cells. Benefits from this research include competitive advantage to operators who will be able to differentiate service offerings and guarantee agreed QoS to their customers.Read moreRead less
Delivering guaranteed quality of service over IP networks. The next revolution in the Internet will be to offer end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees, in the form of maximum delay, delay variation and probability of packet loss, or minimum throughput. There are no existing techniques capable of delivering end-to-end QoS guarantees. This project will develop credit-based controls, instead of the usual rate-based controls, that can deliver these required QoS guarantees. These QoS guarante ....Delivering guaranteed quality of service over IP networks. The next revolution in the Internet will be to offer end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees, in the form of maximum delay, delay variation and probability of packet loss, or minimum throughput. There are no existing techniques capable of delivering end-to-end QoS guarantees. This project will develop credit-based controls, instead of the usual rate-based controls, that can deliver these required QoS guarantees. These QoS guarantees will enable the development and deployment of entirely new services on the Internet. This project will give Australian industry the opportunity to create the next generation Internet. Therefore this project represents a Frontier Technology.Read moreRead less
Quality-of-Service-Based Adaptive Coding for Wireless Communications Networks. The Information and communications technology (ICT) industry has direct contribution to the economy as well as being an enabler across many areas of potential growth. This project aims at solving a key problem currently inhibiting an entire class of wireless ICT applications with strict quality-of-service requirements.

The Information and communications technology (ICT) industry has direct contribution to the economy as well as being an enabler across many areas of potential growth. This project aims at solving a key problem currently inhibiting an entire class of wireless ICT applications with strict quality-of-service requirements.
Another important impact is the bridging nature of the project, cutting across traditionally separated disciplines within telecommunications. The cross-layer design methodologies are the first steps towards interdisciplinary work, opening up new areas of research with high potential of innovation. Establishing an R&D niche of excellence will inspire more efforts into these areas, providing a knowledge base for Australia.Read moreRead less
Intelligent Resource Allocation Techniques for Next Generation Wireless Mobile Communication Networks. The project will develop radio and network resource allocation techniques to maximise network utilisation and to offer guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) for multimedia traffic in 3G/4G wireless mobile communication networks. In particular, this work will study the problem of radio channel allocation in wireless IP (Internet protocol) multimedia networks. The project will develop resource allo ....Intelligent Resource Allocation Techniques for Next Generation Wireless Mobile Communication Networks. The project will develop radio and network resource allocation techniques to maximise network utilisation and to offer guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) for multimedia traffic in 3G/4G wireless mobile communication networks. In particular, this work will study the problem of radio channel allocation in wireless IP (Internet protocol) multimedia networks. The project will develop resource allocation algorithms based on traffic conditions, link qualities and service requirements using statistical traffic models, mobile software agents and neural network techniques.
