The IEEE 802.11x MAC protocol, the de facto standard for wireless LANs, includes a distributed coordination function (DCF) mode usable for ad hoc network architectures. The Transm...
Abstract— The objective of the paper is to provide qualitative insight into the global effects of distributed mechanisms, such as carrier sense multiple access (CSMA) and rate co...
—To understand how node mobility and Byzantine node failures affect connectivity of wireless multi-hop networks, this paper investigates resilience of geometric random graphs to ...
Analyzing TCP operation over 802.11 multihop ad hoc networks involves a cross-layer study. In this work, we investigate the effect of congestion and MAC contention on the interact...
In this paper, we characterize the performance of an important class of scheduling schemes, called Greedy Maximal Scheduling (GMS), for multi-hop wireless networks. While a lower ...
