Energy conservation is a critical issue in wireless ad hoc networks since batteries are the only energy source to power the nodes. One major metric for energy conservation is to r...
Connectivity in mobile wireless ad-hoc networks is maintained by setting the transmission range so that a node can establish a link to any other node in the network either directl...

This paper presents ARC (Adaptive Range Control), a communication range control mechanism using directional antennas to be implemented across multiple layers. ARC uses directional...
We investigate the problem of converting sets of sensors into strongly connected networks of sensors using multiple directional antennae. Consider a set S of n points in the plane...
