Studies of ad hoc wireless networks are a relatively new field gaining more popularity for various new applications. In these networks, the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols a...
—In this paper, we propose a physical (PHY) - medium access control (MAC) cross-layer protocol for ad hoc networks with antenna-array-equipped nodes that employ single-antenna tr...
— Many MAC sub-layer protocols for supporting the usage of directional antennas in ad hoc networks have been proposed in literature. However, there remain two open issues that ar...

This paper presents ARC (Adaptive Range Control), a communication range control mechanism using directional antennas to be implemented across multiple layers. ARC uses directional...
Abstract - In this paper we present a design of a medium access control protocol that allows the utilization of unused licensed spectrum of deployed wireless cellular systems (Prim...
