802.11 wireless mesh networks are ubiquitous, but suffer from severe performance degradations due to poor synergy between the 802.11 CSMA MAC protocol and higher layers. Several s...
Abstract. In the presence of interference, two single hop links can interact in a number of different ways, exhibiting significantly different behavior. In this paper, we consid...
— Recently, researchers have discovered that many of social, natural and biological networks are characterized by scale-free power-law connectivity distribution and a few densely...
Understanding the performance of backoff algorithms in multihop ad hoc networks is a key feature to design efficient Medium Access Protocols for wireless networks. The 802.11 bac...
We propose B-MAC, a carrier sense media access protocol for wireless sensor networks that provides a flexible interface to obtain ultra low power operation, effective collision a...
