—In this paper, a wireless cognitive radio sensor network is considered, where each sensor node is equipped with cognitive radio and the network is a multi-carrier system operati...
— Many distributed multiple access (MAC) protocols use an exponential backoff mechanism. In that mechanism, a node picks a random backoff time uniformly in an interval that doubl...
—In this paper, we study the node clustering problem in UnderWater Sensor Networks (UWSNs). We formulate the problem into a cluster-centric cost-based optimization problem with a...
