– In this paper, we present a new collision-free MAC protocol–Carrier Sense Media Access with ID Countdown (CSMA/IC) for ad hoc wireless networks that can achieve 100% collisio...
In this paper, we consider the channel assignment problem in single radio multi-channel mobile ad-hoc networks. Specifically, we investigate the granularity of channel assignment...
Energy conservation is a critical issue in wireless ad hoc networks since batteries are the only energy source to power the nodes. One major metric for energy conservation is to r...
Abstract—In hierarchical mobile ad hoc networks, the architectual stability is a key factor in determining the network performance. There are many solutions proposed to construct...
— The dynamic nature of ad hoc networks advocates the use of adaptive schemes to optimize network performance. Such adaptive schemes require local observations of prevailing netw...
