—It is well known that IEEE 802.11 provides a physical layer multirate capability and, hence, MAC layer mechanisms are needed to exploit this capability. Several solutions have b...
The quality of media streaming over best-effort networks suffers from network delays and packet losses. The latter is more profound for wireless video. To enhance the QoS of strea...
We propose the cross-layer based opportunistic multi-channel medium access control (MAC) protocols, which integrate the spectrum sensing at physical (PHY) layer with the packet sch...
— Performance comparison of multiuser OFDM-TDMA and OFDMA systems by considering physical and link cross-layer behavior is conducted in this work. We provide a new framework for ...
