Modeling a Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network

June 1, 2013
Author(s)
Richard A. Rouil, Antonio Izquierdo Manzanares, Michael R. Souryal, Camillo Gentile, David W. Griffith, Nada T. Golmie
As governments plan nationwide, interoperable broadband networks for their public safety services, the challenge arises of determining how and where to invest limited resources to meet demanding requirements. The United States is at the early stages of

Wireless Network Deployment in the Smart Grid: Design and Evaluation Issues

November 30, 2012
Author(s)
Camillo A. Gentile, David W. Griffith, Michael R. Souryal
The projected use of the power grid for “smart” applications such as advanced metering and distributed automation will require highly reliable, secure, well-designed and managed communication networks. While many of the benefits of wireless communications

Throughput and Delay Analysis of Half-Duplex IEEE 802.11 Mesh Networks

June 6, 2011
Author(s)
Camillo A. Gentile
Emerging technologies for mesh networks can provide users with last-mile service to an access point by forwarding data through wireless relays instead of through expensive wireline infrastructure. While an extensive amount of literature on mesh networks

Measurements and Models for the Wireless Channel in a Ground-Based Urban Setting in Two Public Safety Frequency Bands

January 20, 2011
Author(s)
William F. Young, Catherine A. Remley, David W. Matolak, Qian Zhang, Christopher L. Holloway, Chriss A. Grosvenor, Camillo A. Gentile, Galen H. Koepke, Qiong Wu
We report on measured peer-to-peer (ground-based) wireless channel characteristics for an urban environment in two public safety frequency bands. Results are based upon measurements taken in Denver in June 2009. The public safety bands we investigated are

An Integrated PHY and MAC Layer Model for Half-Duplex IEEE 802.11 Networks

November 2, 2010
Author(s)
David W. Griffith, Michael R. Souryal, Camillo A. Gentile, Nada T. Golmie
This paper introduces an IEEE 802.11 analytical model that examines uplink and downlink communications between non-saturated stations and a non-saturated access point. The model integrates channel effects and collisions into a single expression for the

A Methodology to Evaluate Wireless Technologies for the Smart Grid

October 4, 2010
Author(s)
Michael R. Souryal, Camillo A. Gentile, David W. Griffith, David E. Cypher, Nada T. Golmie
This paper presents a methodology for assessing the suitability of various wireless technologies for meeting the communication requirements of Smart Grid applications. It describes an approach for translating application requirements to link traffic

A Channel Propagation Model for the 700 MHz Band

September 1, 2010
Author(s)
Camillo A. Gentile, Nada T. Golmie, Catherine A. Remley, Christopher L. Holloway, William F. Young
Conversion from analog television in the United States combined with the appeal for broadband public safety communications is generating a lot of interest in the so-called 700 MHz band between 698-806 MHz. To our knowledge, no channel propagation model for
