This thesis evaluates the performance of the 802.11 wireless network. The newly defined DCF+ protocol performance is studied and compared with the DCF protocol under different traffic conditions. A service differentiation mechanism is also applied to both protocols for basic access mechanism and the efficiency of the protocols is examined. As an additional work, the same study is performed for RTS/CTS access scheme and efficiency of the protocols is examined As a result of this study, it is shown that the DCF+ protocol provides performance enhancement to the DCF protocol under different traffic conditions but fails to provide service differentiation because of its structure.

Federated simulation of network performance using packet flow modeling Demirci, Turan; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010) Federated approach for the distributed simulation of a network, is an alternative method that aims to combine existing simulation models and software together using a Run Time Infrastructure (RTI), rather than building the whole simulation from scratch. In this study, an approach that significantly reduces the inter-federate communication load in federated simulation of communication networks is proposed. Rather than communicating packet-level information among federates, characteristics of packet flows in ...
Improvements to neural network based restoration in optical networks Türk, Fethi; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008) Performance of neural network based restoration of optical networks is evaluated and a few possible improvements are proposed. Neural network based restoration is simulated with optical link capacities assigned by a new method. Two new improvement methods are developed to reduce the neural network size and the restoration time of severed optical connections. Cycle based restoration is suggested, which reduces the neural network structure by restoring the severed connections for each optical node, iterativel...
Optimal resource allocation algorithms for efficient operation of wireless networks Özel, Ömür; Uysal Bıyıkoğlu, Elif; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2009) In this thesis, we analyze allocation of two separate resources in wireless networks: transmit power and buffer space. Controlled allocation of power can provide good performance for both users and the network. Although centralized mechanisms are possible, distributed power control algorithms are preferable for efficient operation of the network. Viewing distributed power allocation as the collection of rational decisions of each user, we make game theoretic problem formulations, devise distributed algorith...
Traffic sign detection using fpga Özkan, İbrahim; Bulut, Mehmet Mete; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010) In this thesis, real time detection of traffic signs using FPGA hardware is presented. Traffic signs have distinctive color and shape properties. Therefore, color and shape based algorithms are chosen to implemented on FPGA. FPGA supports sufficient logic to implement complete systems and sub-systems. Color information of images/frames is used to minimize the search domain of detection process. Using FPGA, real time conversion of YUV space to RGB space is performed. Furthermore, color thresholding algorithm...
Advanced readout and control electronics for mems gyroscopes Temiz, Yüksel; Akın, Tayfun; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007) This thesis reports the development of advanced readout and control electronics for MEMS gyroscopes developed at METU. These gyroscope electronics are separated into three main groups: high sensitive interface circuits, drive mode amplitude controlled self oscillation loops, and sense mode phase sensitive amplitude demodulators. The proposed circuits are first implemented with discrete components, and then integrated on CMOS chips. A self oscillation loop enabling constant amplitude drive mode vibrations in...
