Author:Zlobinsky, N; Johnson, DL; Mishra, AK; Lysko, Albert ADate:Feb 2022In this work, we evaluate the application of four different metaheuristic optimisation algorithms for solving the channel assignment problem in a multi-radio multi-channel Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) using Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA). The ...Read more
Author:Zlobinsky, N; Johnson, D; Mishra, AK; Lysko, Albert ADate:Dec 2021Channel Assignment (CA) in wireless mesh networks (WMNs) has not been well studied in scenarios where the network uses Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA). This work aims to fill some of this gap. We compare metaheuristic algorithms for optimising ...Read more
Author:Masonta, Moshe T; Rananga, SDate:Aug 2023The growing demand for high-speed and ubiquitous connectivity continues to present new challenges for efficient usage, management and sharing of radio frequency spectrum. Dynamic spectrum access concept, enabled by cognitive radio technology, ...Read more
Author:Maliwatu, R; Zlobinsky, Natasha; Densmore, M; Johnson, DDate:Sep 2016Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) provides a new opportunity for last-mile and rural connectivity. However, the nature of DSA and varying environmental conditions means that desired spectrum is not always available. To that end, we have deployed ...Read more
Author:Zlobinsky, N; Mishra, AK; Johnson, DL; Lysko, Albert ADate:Nov 2021This work tackles a new angle to the Channel Assignment (CA) problem, which has otherwise been fairly widely studied for allocating channels optimally to access points and ad-hoc network nodes. Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) using Dynamic ...Read more
Author:Lysko, Albert ADate:May 2017The world has just began taking advantage of the fourth generation (4G) communication technologies, whilst both research and industry communities are already starting with debates around 5G. Besides the antenna based and multiple-input ...Read more
Author:Lamola, MM; Johnson, David; Lysko, Albert A; Zlobisnky, NatashaDate:Sep 2016Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) plays a vital role in opportunistic access to spectrum. A key component of DSA is preventing interference to the incumbent (primary) user from the secondary user. We present the results of an experiment to analyze ...Read more
