In this paper, we propose a new Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for full exploitation of directional antennas in wireless networks. The protocol introduces a circular directio...
Abstract. The RTS/CTS access scheme, designed to reduce the number of collisions in a IEEE 802.11 network, is known to exhibit problems due to masked nodes, the imbalance between t...
