— The standard IEEE 802.15.4 medium access control (MAC) protocol is designed for low-power transmissions in low-rate and short-distance wireless personal area networks (WPANs). ...
— There has been much recent interest in protocol design for wireless networks based on maximizing a network utility function. A significant advance in recent years is the obser...
Abstract—In this paper, we introduce a framework for distributed opportunistic scheduling in multihop wireless ad hoc networks. With the proposed framework, one can take a schedu...
