In this paper, we demonstrate novel type of free-space optical links. It is a contrived idea but has a great potential for realization. The links may be exploited to exchange information in free-space.

Recent experimental results have shown that the minimum signal-to-interference ratio required at a receiver (CPth) depends on the order of arrivals of overlapping frames, and it is much less when the sender's frame arrives earlier. With such differentiating capture capable receivers, in this paper we reconsider the optimal choice for carrier sense range rs of wireless nodes. Through simple analysis and simulations we show that rs need not be more than (CPth)1/α rt, where α is the wireless path loss factor and rt is the nodal communication range.

Protecting a network against link failures is a major challenge faced by network operators. The protection scheme has to address two important objectives - fast recovery and minimizing the amount of backup resources needed. Every protection algorithm is a tradeoff between these two objectives. In this paper, we study the problem of segment protection. In particular, we investigate what is the optimal segment size that obtains the best tradeoff between the time taken for recovery and minimizing the bandwidth used by the backup segments. We focus on the uniform fixed-length segment protection method, where each primary path is divided into fixed-length segments, with the exception of the last segment in the path. We observe that the optimal segment size for a given network depends on several factors such as the topology and the ratio of the costs involved.

The presented passive optical architecture is based on Wave Division Multiplexing Passive Optical Network (WDM-PON), which provides a solution to problems associated with current PONs. The architecture inherently reduces issues like bottleneck bandwidth, reduced security and distance limitations. Results from testing Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) and Return-to-Zero (RZ) encoding scheme over distances between 50km and 80km are also briefly discussed.

This paper proposes an adaptation of two network size estimation methods: random tour and gossip-based aggregation to suit master/slave mobile ad hoc networks. We show that it is feasible to accurately estimate the size of ad hoc networks when topology changes due to mobility using both methods. The algorithms were modified to account for the specific constraints of master/slave ad hoc networks and the results show that the proposed modifications perform better on these networks than the original protocols. Each of the two algorithms presents strengths and weaknesses and these are outlined in this paper.
