— Physical carrier sense for wireless multihop networks has attracted a certain degree of attention since it is a simple yet important mechanism for distributed channel access. S...
—In this paper, we extend both Bianchi’s and Kumar’s models and characterize the channel activities governed by IEEE 802.11 DCF in multi-hop wireless networks from the perspe...
— Traditional Physical Carrier Sensing (PCS), which aims at eliminating hidden terminals in wireless networks, causes too many exposed terminals and deteriorates the throughput p...
—Physical Carrier Sensing plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of CSMA-based MAC protocols, yet its properties and impact on the system performance under slow fading channel...
