Abstract— Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) has been recognized as one of the promising technologies to provide wireless broadband access. In addition to the multi-radio multi-channel ...
— Directional antennas in multihop wireless networks offer a potential increase in the spatial reuse of the wireless channel. However, existing directional MAC protocols are not ...
—In this paper we analyze the capacity of wireless mesh networks that use omni or directional antennas. The capacity in our analysis is the end-to-end per-node throughput. Our an...
Abstract. Interference among co-channel users is a fundamental problem in wireless networks, which prevents nearby links from operating concurrently. Directional antennas allow the...
Abstract— Motivated by the widespread proliferation of wireless networks employing directional antennas, we study the problem of provisioning bandwidth in such networks. Given a ...
