Interference model Possible solutions

Ad-hoc shortest widest path ASWP problem Proposed algorithm

Simulations Conclusion

Ad-Hoc Shortest Widest Path Path metrics

Width Length

Shortest widest path between (s,d ) Want to find the widest path; If more than one, take the shortest.

NP-complete

ASWP Design Separate scheduling and routing

Finding the widest path Distributed algorithm

Clique computation Path computation

Minimize overhead Localized cliques

ASWP Heuristic Bellman approach Key step

Compute path width for one-hop extension Bottleneck clique

Unchanged A maximal clique that the extending link belongs

to Can be done locally

7 hops away X axis: load =

average clique utilization

Y axis: path width

Simulations – path width

50-node network Load = 0.32 All pairs performance X axis: distance

average improvement

Simulations – admission ratio

50-node network Dynamic simulation 5 s/d pairs

Randomly chosen Given distance

Traffic model Flow requests: 4Kb/s, 10,000 flow requests Incoming rate: 0.32 flows per second Duration: uniform distribution between 400 and 2800

seconds Load = 0.32(400+2800)/24 = 2048 Kb/s = 2 Mb/s
