Home Networks

Introduction

When broadband became the standard way we connect to the Internet, the home network was born. The majority of us use a wireless router to connect them to the rest of the world. The sad thing though is using our wireless router for connecting to the Internet is about as complicated as most of us will get. There is so much untapped potential to that little box flashing away in the corner. Wireless routers of today can do more than bring Facebook to your laptop and I'm going to show you exactly what they can do and how. Here are a few things you can do with your wireless router (Taylor, 56-65).

Wireless networks have been became one of the high technology domains of the seven seas, and theoretic and applications study about them are more and more regarded in recent years. Real-time application areas for the WNs encompass tracking, environment scouting, fo-recasting and medical care. Sink nodes of the WNs respond in time on needs, so data channel between sink nodes and sensor nodes must offer a guaranteed quality of service (QoS). It includes deterministic sending rate, transmission without loss, end-to-end delay with upper bound and so on. The guaranteed QoS plays an important role in data transmission for the WNs. For example, the end-toend delay with upper bound is one of the guaranteed services, whether the upper bound on end-to-end can obtain a guarantee is a key to provide the guaranteed QoS and to complete effectively routing, congestion control and load balancing. To fulfill aims, the WNs need to send some special probe packets. The extra cost accounts for much total power under constrained energy, bandwidth and buffer size of a sensor node. However, it results in shortening of the WNs' lifetime, and it is important to provide the guaranteed QoS model and the performance evaluation method for the WNs. (Gilbert, 166-171)
