2009 Theme

The theme for ODCSSS 2009 "Technologies for bridging the digital-physical divide: sensing the environment". Each ODCSSS student is engaged in a research project with a faculty member and mentor which provides them an opportunity to experience research. The selection of interns is highly competitive but we encourage anyone interested in research who is eligible to apply.

Development of novel protocol for inter-vehicular video transmission

Odysseus: 
2009

As people move in high speed vehicles, they have access to voice and data transmission facilities over the mobile networks. These services require low
data rate. However, in order to support video delivery over vehicular networks, it is not only necessary to have and maintain a good connections between different vehicles and between vehicles and the Internet gateways, but these connectivity channels have to support transmissions at high rates and with low loss. A solution to this inter-vehicle and vehicle-gateway communication is by using multiple hops. This project will develop and test using a simulator a protocol for both uni-casting and multi-casting of video for vehicular communication.
 

Demonstratable Outcome: 

Protocol for video transmission over vehicular wireless networks.

Supervisors and Mentors: 
Dr. Hrishikesh Venkataraman
Dr. Gabriel-Miro Muntean
Required Equipment: 

PC and access to a server on which to run simulations
