We present a fluid flow model to analyze backlog-based CSMA policies. The model is obtained using a CSMA fixed point approximation that has been recently proposed and analyzed. We...

Abstract—By ‘optimal CSMA’ we denote a promising approach to maximize throughput-based utility in wireless networks without message passing or synchronization among nodes. De...

Existing multi-channel protocols have been demonstrated to significantly increase aggregate throughput compared to single-channel protocols. However, we show that despite such imp...

Abstract--It was shown recently that carrier sense multiple access (CSMA)-like distributed algorithms can achieve the maximal throughput in wireless networks (and task processing n...
802.11 wireless mesh networks are ubiquitous, but suffer from severe performance degradations due to poor synergy between the 802.11 CSMA MAC protocol and higher layers. Several s...
