Abstract:

A new virtual user identification method in synchronized DS-CDMA wireless Ad Hoc networks is proposed, which uses the schedule information in SEEDEX protocol in MAC layer according to cross-layer design. The receiver detects whether there are virtual users. The virtual users will be identified by the spreading code of all the nodes which are possibly transmitting packets at the time slot if there are virtual users. Otherwise the data frame will be dropped. By using this method the calculation amount is reduced, the energy of the receiver is saved, and the error rate of the receiver is reduced.

Key words: Ad Hoc networks, DS-CDMA, virtual user identification, cross-layer, SEEDEX
