Instructions

Reading digital theses in the closed network of the Aalto University Harald Herlin Learning Centre

In the closed network of Learning Centre you can read digital and digitized theses not available in the open network.

The Learning Centre contact details and opening hours: https://learningcentre.aalto.fi/en/harald-herlin-learning-centre/

You can read theses on the Learning Centre customer computers, which are available on all floors.

Logging on to the customer computers

  • Aalto University staff members log on to the customer computer using the Aalto username and password.
  • Other customers log on using a shared username and password.

Opening a thesis

  • On the desktop of the customer computers, you will find an icon titled:

    Aalto Thesis Database

  • Click on the icon to search for and open the thesis you are looking for from Aaltodoc database. You can find the thesis file by clicking the link on the OEV or OEVS field.

Reading the thesis

  • You can either print the thesis or read it on the customer computer screen.
  • You cannot save the thesis file on a flash drive or email it.
  • You cannot copy text or images from the file.
  • You cannot edit the file.

Printing the thesis

  • You can print the thesis for your personal study or research use.
  • Aalto University students and staff members may print black-and-white prints on the PrintingPoint devices when using the computer with personal Aalto username and password. Color printing is possible using the printer u90203-psc3, which is located near the customer service. Color printing is subject to a charge to Aalto University students and staff members.
  • Other customers can use the printer u90203-psc3. All printing is subject to a charge to non-University members.

ad hoc networks
Abstract (eng):The use of wireless local area networks (WLAN) for networking has become very widespread.
This is primarily because they provide an easy to access cable-free network that can be connected to while on the move and provide access to fixed networks.
Further more the use of ad hoc networking has also become the preferred way of setting up networks since it is quick and eliminates the need of extra stations for centralized connectivity.

In this thesis we study methods to improve the performance of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) by employing dynamic channel selection.
The work that has been done in this regard focuses on the IEEE 802.11b standard and results in the implementation of a testbed that provides the basis to study the effect of channel selection on the performance of a communication link between two wireless stations which are connected to one another in ad hoc mode.
The thesis helps us to understand the usefulness of such a scheme and describes how much improvement in performance namely throughput is achieved under a select set of traffic trends.

A Channel Selection Tool has been developed to do this study.
There is a possibility to implement an algorithm of choice in this tool while it provides the mechanism to change and set new channels in the wireless network.
The current algorithm though simple helps us achieve significant results.
This has allowed us to understand the key concepts in such mechanisms and we are better able to identify the drawbacks and possible advantages that such an implementation can bring in the area of study.
