============================================
Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication and cognitive radio (CR)
communication have gained increasing attention in the last decade. MIMO
effectively increases data throughput without using additional radio spectrum,
and CR exploits the existing wireless spectrum opportunistically. These
emerging communication technologies effectively address the problem of limited
available spectrum. The research originated from the communication community
is centered on single-hop wireless communications such as in cellular networks.
Issues related to the distributed coordination of MIMO functionalities (such as
spatial multiplexing and diversity coding) and CR functionalities (such as
spectrum sensing and spectrum management) in a multihop ad hoc network
have not been extensively studied yet. The non-trivial coupling of ad hoc
networks with emerging communication technologies such as MIMO and
cognitive radios will pose new challenges on networking protocol design and
resource management, create exciting new topics in MIMO and cognitive radio
research pertaining to optimal leveraging of local information, and greatly
advance both the networking and communication technology of decentralized
architecture.
The objective of this workshop is to bring together practitioners and researchers
from both academia and industry in order to have a forum for discussion and
technical presentations on applying MIMO and cognitive radio technologies to
ad hoc networks. In line with such objectives, original contributions are solicited
in topics of interest including, but not limited to, the following:
? Network topology control
? Wireless resource management and medium access control
? Spectrum and channel aware routing
? Multihop interference mitigation
? Cross-layer design and cooperative networking
? Distributed coordination on spectrum management
? Congestion control and transport layer protocol design
? Performance modeling and optimization
? Evaluation methods, analytical or experimental
? Wireless ad hoc network testbeds
? Application protocol design
? Cooperative sensing, and use of spectrum databases
