— In the paper, we propose a novel scheduling mechanism without modifying the existing IEEE 802.11 MAC, called wireless Radio-Matching Protocol (RMP). It takes account of interfe...
: A multi-rate capable IEEE 802.11a/b/g node can utilize different link-layer transmission rates. Interestingly, multi-rate capability is defined by IEEE 802.11 standards only for...
In this paper, we study end-to-end performance characteristics of S-MAC, an energy-aware medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSN). WSNs are composed...
Mobility in wireless sensor networks poses unique challenges to the medium access control (MAC) protocol design. Previous MAC protocols for sensor networks assume static sensor no...
