TCP can perform poorly in multi-hop wireless networks due to problems that arise with contention and mobility. Endto-end protocols are at an inherent disadvantage in trying to sol...
—In this paper, we extend both Bianchi’s and Kumar’s models and characterize the channel activities governed by IEEE 802.11 DCF in multi-hop wireless networks from the perspe...
In a multi-hop wireless network, each node is able to send a message to all of its neighbors that are located within its transmission radius. In a flooding task, a source sends th...
Ad-hoc networks are by definition created on demand, without any infrastructure. On the other hand, they are often considered as an extension of the range of Internet access poin...
—In wireless sensor networks, sensor nodes are expected to gather specific information about the environment and send it to the user. The data dissemination usually involves many...
