Using beam forming antennas in ad hoc networks have been recently focused on, in order to improve the space reuse. This news context implies to revisit network algorithms because t...
In this paper, we proposed a MAC protocol, which can dynamically adjust Listening/Sleeping time rate of wireless sensor nodes according to data traffic load. In sensor networks, se...
Energy assessment of MAC protocols for wireless sensor networks is generally based on the times of transmit, receive and sleep modes. The switching energy between two consecutive ...

We present the design, implementation, and evaluation of a Time Division Multiplex (TDM) MAC protocol for multihop wireless mesh networks using a programmable wireless platform. E...
: Handoff is a critical function that enables mobile nodes to stay connected to the wireless network by switching the data connection from one WLAN to another. During handoff the c...
