Abstract
In this paper we highlight optimization framework for UWB ad hoc networks in order to promote four performance goals: maximizing throughput; promoting fair access; minimizing connection setup latency; and minimizing control overhead. Each node maintains a local state table that includes perceived interference, received radio power, communication resource allocation for different traffic classes, and reliability. Nodes use this state information to adapt the transmission rate and power of their active links in order to maintain link quality guarantees. Nodes also adapt the neighbour costs and the period of their state declaration (hello) messages according to changes in local and neighbourhood state. Also we base our results on OFDM transceiver simulation as physical layer in ASIC radio. Within the optimization framework, we present UWB-MAC, an adaptive Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for UWB building on TinyOS RTOS in which nodes periodically declare their current state, so that neighbours can assign power and rate values for new links locally in order to optimize global network performance.
