This paper proposes a location service to assist location-based routing protocols, realized through a novel Associativity-Based clustering protocol. The main goal of our scheme, w...
IEEE 802.11 MAC, called the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), employs carrier sensing to effectively avoid collisions, but this makes it difficult to maximally reuse the sp...
This paper investigates two fundamental characteristics of a wireless multihop network: its minimum node degree and its k?connectivity. Both topology attributes depend on the spat...
Transmission power control (TPC) has a great potential to increase the throughput of a mobile ad hoc network (MANET). Existing TPC schemes achieve this goal by using additional ha...
