Abstract— Following widespread availability of wireless Internet, a wide range of applications with differing QoS requirements must share the wireless access. The objective of th...
To support reliable multicast routing in wireless mesh networks, it is important to protect multicast sessions against link or node failures. The issue of protecting multicast ses...
— Recently, researchers have discovered that many of social, natural and biological networks are characterized by scale-free power-law connectivity distribution and a few densely...
: A multi-rate capable IEEE 802.11a/b/g node can utilize different link-layer transmission rates. Interestingly, multi-rate capability is defined by IEEE 802.11 standards only for...
A collision resolution scheme is essential to the performance of a random-access wireless network. Most schemes employ exponential backoff (EB) to adjust the transmission attempt ...
