— Even though multiple non-overlapped channels exist in the 2.4GHz and 5GHz spectrum, most IEEE 802.11-based multi-hop ad hoc networks today use only a single channel. As a resul...
Opportunistic scheduling can significantly improve wireless network performance by exploiting the feedback information that conveys the underlying channel condition. In emerging ...
—Recently, spectrum-agile (SA) networks have been recognized as a viable solution to the spectrum-scarcity problem in wireless communications. In SA networks, secondary (unlicens...
—In wireless networks, node cooperation has been exploited as a data relaying mechanism for decades. However, the wireless channel allows for much richer interaction among nodes....
This paper proposes a medium access control (MAC) protocol for ad hoc wireless networks that utilizes multiple channels dynamically to improve performance. The IEEE 802.11 standar...
