Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAn Approach to Improve the State Scalability of Source Specific MulticastS. A. Al-Talib, B. M. Ali, S. KhatunProblem statement: Source Specific Multicast (SSM) is an acceptable solution for current multicast applications; since the driving applications to date are one to many, including Internet TV, distance learning, file distribution and streaming media. Approach: It was useful for billing, address allocation and security. SSM still had serious state scalability problem when there were a large number of simultaneous on-going … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,820 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCooperative Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks-Avoid Non-Perfect Reporting ChannelRania A. Mokhtar, Sabira Khatun, B. M. Ali, A. RamliProblem statement: Cognitive radio is a candidate technology for more efficient spectrum utilization systems based on opportunistic spectrum sharing. However, a common assumption regarding cognitive radios is that they are unlicensed spectrum users that should defer to (avoid interfering with) existing primary sources. Therefore effective sensing of primary users was a major focus of current research. Cooperative spectrum sensing had … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,734 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesUltra Wide Band (UWB) Ad-hoc Networks: Review and TrendsRashid Saeed, Sabira Khatun, Borhanuddin M. Ali, Mohd K. AbduallahShort-range wireless systems have recently gained a lot of attention to provide seamless, multimedia communications around a user-centric concept in so called Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN). Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) technology presents itself as a good candidate for the Physical Layer (PHY) of WPAN, both for high and low data rate applications. Many ongoing developments of Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) system … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,060 accessesView PDFCite
