In this work we propose a QoS architecture for MANETs based on a probe-based distributed admission control mechanism and the IEEE 802.11e technology. Our aim is to improve peer-to...

—Performance of IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function (DCF) has been studied by several authors under steady-state conditions. Behavior of DCF under transient state condi...
— In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), the hidden and the exposed terminal problems affect the throughput of the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols. Several MAC schemes have be...
A number of factors, such as the increasing popularity of wireless networks, the opportunities offered by 3G services, and the rapid proliferation of mobile devices, have stimulat...
Mobile Ad hoc Networks are highly dynamic networks. Quality of Service (QoS) routing in such networks is usually limited by the network breakage due to either node mobility or ene...
