20090059816 | Topology aware manet for mobile networks - Systems and methods provide adaptability in a mobile ad hoc network (MANET), based on an existing protocol, such as adaptive hybrid domain routing (AHDR). The systems and methods are especially suited for fast changing topologies that may change after a reactive route discovery has been completed. | 03-05-2009 |
20100238890 | TIME SYNCHRONIZATION FOR DISTRIBUTED MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKS - Time synchronization among nodes in a wireless mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is obtained using a cross layer approach. Each node maintains a routing table that contains entries corresponding to other nodes of the network that are one or more hops away from the node, and topology messages are exchanged periodically among the nodes in order to update their routing tables. A network master node is selected, and remaining nodes that are one or more hops away from the master node are defined as slave nodes. The master node includes master timing information the topology messages that it transmits. The timing information is concatenated to include a first time (T | 09-23-2010 |
20100284274 | System and method for determining a transmission order for packets at a node in a wireless communication network - A wireless communications network comprising a plurality of nodes and effective to provide quality of service requirements for packets being transmitted. An ingress node calculates variables based on quality of service requirements and places those variables in a header of a packet to be transmitted. The packet is then transmitted to a core node. The core node reads the variables in the packet and calculates a holding time for the packet based on the variables and the quality of service requirements. | 11-11-2010 |
20110172938 | Electrical Power System Sensor Devices, Electrical Power System Monitoring Methods, And Electrical Power System Monitoring Systems - Electrical power system sensor devices, electrical power system monitoring methods, and electrical power system monitoring systems are disclosed according to some aspects of the description. In one aspect, an electrical power system sensor device includes sensor circuitry configured to monitor a characteristic of electrical energy which is conducted using an electrical conductor of an electrical power system, an attachment assembly configured to position the sensor circuitry with respect to the electrical conductor wherein the sensor circuitry monitors the characteristic of the electrical energy which is conducted within the electrical conductor of the electrical power system, and wherein the sensor circuitry is electrically isolated from the electrical conductor of the electrical power system. | 07-14-2011 |

20120250629 | MULTIUSER DETECTION ENABLED MEDIUM ACCESS CONTROL IN MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKS - A method of providing medium access control for a wireless mobile ad hoc network includes defining a TDMA network timing frame including a data (DATA) zone having one or more time slots structured to support multiuser detection (MUD) of concurrent transmissions during each slot, a negative acknowledgment (NACK) zone during which nodes transmit requests for retransmission of packets destined to but not successfully received by the nodes, a broadcast (BC) zone during which network management messages are broadcast to the nodes, and a control (CTRL) zone. A primary master (PM) node is selected and operates as a source of network time for all the nodes. Each node synchronizes its time to that of the PM node during the CTRL zone in a distributed manner, by exchanging control messages with the PM node or other nodes located one or more hops from the PM node. | 10-04-2012 |
20120250632 | DISTRIBUTED SCHEDULER DESIGN FOR MULTIUSER DETECTION ENABLED WIRELESS MOBILE AD-HOC NETWORKS - In the method for operating an interference multiple access communications system, wherein the improvement comprises the steps of employing a distributed scheduler within a Media Access Controller (MAC) for Multiuser Detection (MUD) enabled Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETS) to increase spectral efficiency by increasing spectral use and providing a way to dynamically allocate virtual channels to achieve maximum channel reuse in different network topologies and different link patterns and to ameliorate any hidden or exposed node problems. | 10-04-2012 |
