New technological trends lead to the increasing use of network technologies in automation. Especially the Ethernet with TCP/IP and wireless networks find growing acceptance. The r...
—In this paper, we address the topology control issue for future wireless mesh networks (WMNs). In particular, we propose a novel topology control scheme that attempts to maximiz...
Abstract. Multi-hop wireless networks provide a quick and easy way for networking when we need a temporary network or when cabling is difficult. The 802.11 Medium Access Control (M...
The IEEE802.11e defines a MAC protocol, which provides EDCA (enhanced distributed channel access) and HCCA (HCF controlled channel access) to support differentiation service over W...
In this paper, we address the problem of cross-layer optimization in medium access control (MAC) and network layers for wireless multicasting with multiple cooperative or competit...
