| Abstract: | A primary challenge in wireless networks is to use available resources efficiently so
that the Quality of Service (QoS) is satisfied while maximizing the throughput of the
network. Among different resource allocation strategies, power and spectrum allocations
have long been regarded as efficient tools to mitigate interference and improve the
throughput of the network. Also, achieving a low transmission delay is an important
QoS requirement in buffer-limited networks, particularly for users with real-time
services. For these networks, too much delay results in dropping some packets. Therefore, the main challenge
in networks with real-time services is to utilize an efficient power allocation scheme
so that the delay is minimized while achieving a high throughput. This dissertation
deals with these problems in distributed wireless networks. |
