—Most of geographic routing approaches in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks do not take into consideration the medium access control (MAC) and physical layers when designing a ...
Abstract— Traditionally, reliable multicast protocols are deterministic in nature. It is precisely this determinism that tends to become their limiting factor when aiming at reli...
Mobile wireless communication is susceptible to signal blockage, which is loss of signal, typically due to physical obstruction, over a longer duration relative to fading. Measurem...
