—This paper aims at answering the questions of how to enable cooperative communications in random access networks. And, since cooperation introduces extra transmissions in the ch...
WLAN is one of the most successful applications of wireless communications in daily life because of low cost and ease of deployment. The enabling technique for this success is the ...
A random access protocol named ALLIANCES was recently proposed, that achieves high throughput by resolving collisions in wireless networks. ALLIANCES exploits diversity provided b...
In this paper, we address the problem of cross-layer optimization in medium access control (MAC) and network layers for wireless multicasting with multiple cooperative or competit...
