—In this paper, we propose a comprehensive solution for power control in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). Our solution emphasizes the interplay between the MAC and network layers...
Recent studies on directional Media Access Control (MAC) protocols using smart antennas for wireless ad hoc networks have shown that directional MAC protocols outperform traditiona...
Using directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks can significantly improve network performance. However, the deafness problem greatly limits the network performance. This pa...
This paper presents a new carrier sensing mechanism called DVCS (Directional Virtual Carrier Sensing) for wireless communication using directional antennas. DVCS does not require ...
