Title: Smart Antenna-based Packets Scheduling Algorithm in Ad Hoc Networks
Abstract: The smart antenna could improve the network throughput while bring forth HOL(Head of Line) blocking problem in wireless ad hoc network.To address the problem,this paper proposes a novel packet schedule algorithm based on the virtual carrier sensing mechanism.By using the directional network allocation vector,the algorithm divides the areas into useful areas and bad areas,chooses the ideal packets and sends them to the useful areas.Computer simulation and performance analysis show that the HOL blocking problem could be efficiently solved,and a higher throughput could be achieved via the proposed algorithm.
