We analyze the problem of reducing packet losses due to the authentication time which is required when an ad hoc node switches across different gateways in a mobile ad hoc network...
— Extensive research has been performed to study selfish data caching in ad hoc networks using game-theoretic analysis. However, due to the caching problem’s theoretical root ...
—Characterizing the performance of ad hoc networks is one of the most intricate open challenges; conventional ideas based on information-theoretic techniques and inequalities hav...
— Many distributed multiple access (MAC) protocols use an exponential backoff mechanism. In that mechanism, a node picks a random backoff time uniformly in an interval that doubl...
—This paper introduces a self-organized mechanism to control user access in ad hoc networks without requiring any infrastructure or a central administration entity. The proposed ...
