On Striping Traffic over Multiple IEEE 802.11(b) Wireless Channels

Due to interference, path loss, multipath fading, background noise, and many other factors, wireless communication normally cannot provide a wireless link with both a high data rate and a long transmission range. To address this problem, striping network traffic in parallel over multiple lower-data-rate but longer-transmission-range wireless channels may be used. In this paper, we propose a new striping method and evaluate its performances over multiple IEEE 802.11(b) channels under various conditions. Our extensive simulation results show that this method is quite effective for such an application. S.Y.

Analysis and Optimization of the Energy Efficiency in the 802.11 DCF

This paper introduces an analytical model to investigate the energy efficiency of the IEEE 802.11 distributed coordinated function (DCF). This model not only accounts for the number of contending nodes, the contention window, but also the packet size, and the channel condition. Based on this model, we identify the tradeoff in choosing optimum parameters to optimize the energy efficiency of DCF in the error-prone environment. The effects of contention window and packet size on the energy efficiency are examined and compared for both DCF basic scheme and DCF with four-way handshaking. The maximum energy efficiency can be obtained by combining both the optimal packet size and optimal contention window. To validate our analysis, we have done extensive simulations in ns-2, and simulation results seem to match well with the presented analytical results.

Characterization and Formation Mechanism of Six Pointed Star-Type Stacking Faults in 4H-SiC

Synchrotron white-beam x-ray topography (SWBXT) studies of defects in 100-mm-diameter 4H-SiC wafers grown using physical vapor transport are presented. SWBXT enables nondestructive examination of thick and large-diameter SiC wafers, and defects can be imaged directly. Analysis of the contrast from these defects enables determination of their configuration, which, in turn, provides insight into their possible formation mechanisms. Apart from the usual defects present in the wafers, including micropipes, threading edge dislocations, threading screw dislocations, and basal plane dislocations, a new stacking fault with a peculiar configuration attracts our interest. This fault has the shape of a six-pointed star, comprising faults with three different fault vectors of Shockley type. Transmission and grazing topography of the fault area are carried out, and detailed contrast analysis reveals that the outline of the star is confined by 30° Shockley partial dislocations. A micropipe, which became the source of dislocations on both the basal plane slip system and the prismatic slip system, is found to be associated with the formation of the star fault. The postulated mechanism involves the reaction of 60° dislocations of a/3 〈 $ \bar{2}110 $ 〉 Burgers vector on basal plane and pure screw dislocations of a/3 〈 $ 11\bar{2}0 $ 〉 Burgers vector on prismatic plane and cross slip of the partial dislocation from prismatic plane to basal plane leading to expansion of the faults.
