Outline of Final Research Achievements

A novel capacity reservation protocol for wireless multi-hop networks is proposed. In addition, its performance is evaluated in simulation experiments and the protocol is implemented in mobile wireless nodes.
Due to lower capacity in wireless communication links, it is difficult to reserve the required capacity along a wireless multi hop transmission routes in wireless ad-hoc networks. In order to improve the successful ratio of the capacity reservation, the proposed method reserves capacity of wireless communication links along multiple multi-hop wireless transmission routes with joins and branches. Different from the conventional capacity reservation method for wired networks, the proposed protocol is designed under consideration of interference between wireless signals transmitted from neighbor wireless nodes.
