Balancing Transport and Physical Layers in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks: Jointly Optimal Congestion Control and Power Control

Abstract

Telecommunications have been expanding. The engineering focus has been on either the physical layer improvements (better coding, modulation ..) or upper layer network protocol (MPLS ...). But end users only care about the net end-to-end performance. The argument is presented for cross layering.
