Recent studies on directional Media Access Control (MAC) protocols using smart antennas for wireless ad hoc networks have shown that directional MAC protocols outperform traditiona...
– Hybrid Wireless Mesh Networks are wireless multi-hop networks consisting of two types of nodes, Mesh Routers and Mesh Clients. Mesh Routers are more static and less resource co...
In this paper we analyze the performance of a distributed queuing medium access control (MAC) protocol designed to execute cooperative ARQ (C-ARQ) schemes at the MAC layer. Due to ...
