Increasing fairness and efficiency using the MadMac protocol in ad hoc networks
Abstract. The IEEE 802.11 MAC layer is known for its unfairness behavior in ad hoc networks. Introducing fairness in the 802.11 MAC protocol may lead to a global throughput decreas...

Hop-to-Hop Reliability in IP-Based Wireless Sensor Networks - A Cross-Layer Approach
Abstract. To interconnect a wireless sensor network (WSN) to the Internet, we propose to use TCP/IP as the standard protocol for all network entities. We present a cross layer desi...
