: This paper describes the implementation architecture and performance analysis of nanoMAC, a CSMA/CA based medium access control protocol, which is specifically designed for high...
It has been shown that IEEE 802.11 DCF medium access control (MAC) protocol may not be suitable for multihop wireless networks due to its relatively low throughput and severely un...
Recently, the 802.11e Working Group (WG) has proposed the Hybrid Coordination Function (HCF), which has a HCF Controlled Channel Access (HCCA) and an Enhanced Distributed Coordinat...
