Multihop cellular networks (MeNs) is an extension of single hop cellular networks (SCNs) having benefits of a fixed base station and flexible ad hoc networks. The radio resource ma...
—The provision of very high data rates in a ubiquitous manner throughout the service area is a great challenge for 4G and beyond-4G wireless networks. Towards that end, the deplo...
One of the promising applications of IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX)-based wireless mesh/relay networks is to provide infrastructure/backhaul support for IEEE 802.11based mobile hotspots. In ...
—The enhancement of cellular networks with relaying technologies is expected to bring significant techno-economic benefits, but proper allocation of resources may be a challeng...
