— This paper addresses the problem of designing a power-aware Multiple Access Control (MAC) protocol for Multihop Wireless Networks (MHWN). The problem is formulated as a cross l...
In this paper we propose a new multicast protocol for multihop mobile wireless networks. Instead of forming multicast trees, a group of nodes in charge of forwarding multicast pac...
This paper presents the Simple Packet Combining (SPaC) error-correction scheme for wireless sensor networks. Nodes buffer corrupt packets, and when two or more corrupt versions o...
Networking researchers have been using tools like wireshark and tcpdump to sniff packets on physical links that use different types of datalink protocols, e.g. Ethernet or 802.11,...
Abstract— The 802.15.4 WSN standard provides optional reliability through positive acknowledgments. Since positive-ACKs are not designed for energy efficiency, there is significa...
