In this paper we investigate the performance of IEEE 802.11b ad hoc networks by means of an experimental study. This analysis reveals several aspects that are usually neglected in...

—Performance of IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function (DCF) has been studied by several authors under steady-state conditions. Behavior of DCF under transient state condi...
A unidirectional link exists in an ad-hoc network when a node B is within the transmission range of another node A while node A cannot directly hear node B. However, a reverse rou...
In this paper, we propose a formal notion of network security for ad hoc networks. We adopt a probabilistic security framework, that is, security is defined by a polynomially bou...
Epidemics-inspired techniques have received huge attention in recent years from the distributed systems and networking communities. These algorithms and protocols rely on probabili...
