We consider wireless multicast tree construction for energy efficiency. We introduce a novel algorithm, Incremental Shortest Path Tree (ISPT), to generate source-based multicast ...
A good amount of research has been developed to support QoS issues in IEEE 802.11 ad hoc networks, such as QoS routing, MAC layer QoS support, and cross-layer QoS design. However,...
— The dynamic nature of ad hoc networks advocates the use of adaptive schemes to optimize network performance. Such adaptive schemes require local observations of prevailing netw...
Abstract--Previous simulations have shown substantial performance gains can be achieved by using hybrid cellular and wireless LAN (WLAN) approaches [1]. In a hybrid system, a proxy...
— In this paper, information theoretic techniques are used to derive analytic expressions for the minimum expected length of control messages exchanged by proactive routing in a ...
