—In most existing sender-initiated handshaking based underwater Media Access Control (MAC) protocols, only the initiating sender is allowed to transmit data packets to its intend...
—This paper considers the tradeoff between bursty and continuous transmissions in wireless ad hoc networks. In our network model, packets belonging to specific transmitters arri...

— MIMA-MAC is the most attractive MAC protocol for MIMO ad hoc networks, which consist of nodes with multiple antennas. MIMA-MAC, however, uses only a half of antennas for data t...
IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) guarantees fair transmission opportunity to stations. Channel occupation of low rate stations in IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area...
: In this paper we are proposing a new concept in MAC layer protocol design for Cognitive radio by combining information held by physical layer and MAC layer with analytical engine...
