    Energy Dissipation Characteristics of Wireless Sensor Networks With Unidirectional Links;
    (2012) Özyer,S.T.; Tavli,B.; Koyuncu,M.
    Link unidirectionality is a commonly encountered phenomena in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), which is a natural result of various properties of wireless transceivers as well as the environment. Transmission power heterogeneity is the dominant factor that creates unidirectional links. In this study, we investigate the impact of transmission power heterogeneity on the lifetime of WSNs through a novel Linear Programming (LP) framework both for networks that utilize only bidirectional links and for those that can use bidirectional links as well as unidirectional links. Our results show that transmission power heterogeneity can lead to more than 25 % decrease in network lifetime for networks that utilize only bidirectional links when compared to a network without any heterogeneity. However, if the use of unidirectional links is also enabled then, the decrease in network lifetime is at most 12 %. © 2012 IEEE.

    An Rsvp Model for Opnet Simulator With an Integrated Qos Architecture
    (Caltek s.r.l., 2009) Özyer,S.T.; Hassanpour,R.
    Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) allows Internet real-time applications to request a specific end-to-end Quality of service (QoS) for data stream before they start transmitting data. In this paper firstly an overview of RSVP is presented. After that the different quality of services available and the relation between QoS and RSVP have been explained. The fundamentals of RSVP as a protocol is discussed. The performance issues and benchmarking for planned portion architecture at the department of Computer Engineering, Çankaya University has been given next. The experimental results and discussions conclude this paper. In this paper, OPNET network simulation tool has been used. Under given architecture and protocol, performance of quality of service implications has been carried out.
