Idle sense: an optimal access method for high throughput and fairness in rate diverse wireless LANs
We consider wireless LANs such as IEEE 802.11 operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum. While their nominal bit rates have increased considerably, the MAC layer remains practica...

A Comparison of Mechanisms for Improving TCP Performance over Wireless Links
Reliable transport protocols such as TCP are tuned to perform well in traditional networks where packet losses occur mostly because of congestion. However, networks with wireless ...

On lower bounds for MAC layer contention in CSMA/CA-based wireless networks
Wireless LANs operating within unlicensed frequency bands require random access schemes such as CSMA/CA, so that wireless networks from different administrative domains (for exam...

Using Incompletely Cooperative Game Theory in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
—Recently, game theory becomes a useful and powerful tool to research mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). Wireless LANs (WLANs) can work under both infrastructure and ad hoc modes, ...
