ViTaLS -A Novel Link-Layer Scheduling Framework for Tactile Internet over Wi-Fi

The pioneering field of tactile Internet (TI) will enable the transfer of human skills over long distances through haptic feedback. Realizing this demands a roundtrip latency of sub-5 ms. In this work, we investigate the capability of Wi-Fi 6 and existing TI scheduling/multiplexing schemes in meeting this stringent latency constraint. Taking...

FEEL: Fast, Energy-Efficient Localization for Autonomous Indoor Vehicles

Autonomous vehicles have created a sensation in both indoor and outdoor applications. The famous indoor use-case is process automation inside a warehouse using Autonomous Indoor Vehicles (AIV). These vehicles need to locate themselves not only with an accuracy of a few centimeters but also within a few milliseconds in an energy-efficient manner....

FLeet: When time-bounded communication meets high energy-efficiency

With the advent of low-cost, embedded sensor-actuator devices, the applications of cyber-physical systems have spread multi-fold in domains like infrastructure, manufacturing, automation, etc. Wireless sensor-actuator networks (WSANs) act as the backbone for applications in these domains. Typical WSAN deployments focus on energy-efficiency ...
