The delay performance of the indirect handoff scheme (IHS) experienced by constant bit rate (CBR) traffic was analyzed first, and the result shows this scheme in cellular IP (CIP) protocol cannot guarantee zero packet loss during the handoff process. Slow route updating and long access time to the new base station (BS) are the two main reasons leading to the potential packet loss. In order to mitigate the influence of these two problems, an enhanced indirect handoff scheme (EIHS) was proposed. Simplified routing updating (SRU) and handoff buffering (HBUF) were adopted to improve the IHS in the CIP. The results of the theoretical analysis and NS2 simulation show that packet loss of the real time traffic during the handoff can be reduced dramatically with the EIHS.

Taking the maximum end to end data rate as the optimization criterion, an adaptive power allocation scheme was proposed to distribute a fractional power to each hop according to the channel state information. The simulation results prove the advantages of the cooperative system and show that compared with the uniform power allocation scheme, the proposed power allocation scheme can improve the system capacity by adjusting each hop power adaptively and deciding whether or not to relay based on the channel status.

The study shows that the impact of channel estimation errors varies with system load. Furthermore, forward link simulcasting can decrease both the impact of channel estimation errors and the outage probability.

Meanwhile, a different form of likelihood function in frequency domain was derived, and analytical estimation result was also given. The new algorithm decreases the computational complexity greatly, and increases the accuracy of the estimation greatly. The estimation algorithm using pilot symbols together with the decision data was also analyzed, and the accuracy of the estimation result can be improved by utilizing the decision data.

Theoretical analysis demonstrates that the new method is transparent to the upper layer applications and underlying network services, backward compatible, easy to deploy and cost effective.
To improve the success probability of transmitted packets of leader nodes in tactics Ad Hoc network, a novel backoff algorithm was proposed, which was different from general methods of setting backoff intervals. When the leader succeeded to send a packet, the backoff interval was set as the maximum value. After failing to send a packet, the backoff interval was gradually shortened when times of retransmission increased. Then its performance was theoretically analyzed. Computer simulation shows that the success probability of packets of leader nodes which are transmitted is greatly improved and little effect is given to the success probability of packets of common nodes.

Probability statistics for multipath delay of multiframe was introduced to improve the performance of multipath estimation. Simulation results indicate that the algorithms are robust against a frequency selective fading channel: The timing synchronization algorithm shows satisfactory performance even at a low signaltonoise ratios (SNR), and mean square error (MSE) of 10-7 is obtained at SNR>6?dB for the multipath delay estimation, while channel sampling rate is 20?MHz.
The hierarchical mobile IP (HMIP) is efficient for reducing signaling cost and handover latency. However, since user mobility characteristics and traffic load between different cells are always changing, the preplaned hierarchical topology is likely to be invalid or even causes more signaling cost. A novel algorithm based on domain discovery and topology adaptive optimization was proposed, which can discover those cells with high handover frequency or heavy traffic load through realtime measurement and make these cells gather into the same administrative domain. In this way, the interdomain handover/traffic will change to intradomain handover/traffic. The theoretic analysis and simulation results both show that the algorithm reduces the signaling costs and handover latency and increases the throughput of mobile nodes obviously.

An adaptive beamforming algorithm based on nonlinear constraint was presented. Firstly, the algorithm modified the eigenvectors corresponding to signal subspace of the covariance matrix of the receiving signals. SOI(signal of interest) was not contained in the modified covariance matrix but interference signal and noise were contained. Then LCMV (linearly constrained minimum covariance) method and the modified covariance matrix were adopted in the new approach to obtain weight vector of adaptive pattern. To improve the robust characteristics, nonlinear constraint method was used to optimize the weight vector of adaptive pattern. The final solution of weight vector was different from alterably diagonal loading and the unknown parameter in optimal solution can be obtained easily and accurately. The SINR (signal to interference plus noise ratio) of the new algorithm has robust characteristics for random steering vector errors and is not sensitive to power change of SOI. Simulation results prove the validity of the new algorithm.
