Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are an emerging architecture based on multi-hop transmission. ISPs considers WMNs as a potential future technology to offer broadband Internet acces...
: IEEE 802.11 exhibits both short-term and long-term unfairness [15]. The short-term fairness automatically gives rise to long-term fairness, but not vice versa [11]. When we thoro...
We consider wireless LANs such as IEEE 802.11 operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum. While their nominal bit rates have increased considerably, the MAC layer remains practica...

: IEEE 802.11 is a wireless network standard that was completed in 1997. Unfortunately, the medium access protocol described in the standard meets some problems that arise from the...
This paper analyzes the energy consumption of ad hoc nodes using IEEE 802.11 interfaces. Our objective is to provide theoretical limits on the lifetime gains that can be achieved b...
