Under a multirate network scenario, the IEEE 802.11 DCF MAC fails to provide airtime fairness for all competing stations since the protocol is designed for ensuring max-min through...
—Significant progress has been made in understanding the behavior of TCP and congestion-controlled traffic over multihop wireless networks. Despite these advances, however, no ...
—This paper provides analytical expressions to evaluate the performance of a random access wireless network in terms of user throughput and network throughput, subject to the con...
The throughput of wireless networks can be significantly improved by multi-channel communications compared with single-channel communications since the use of multiple channels ca...
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 ...
