Abstract—The link layer of an optical direct-detection code-division multiple-access (CDMA) packet network is considered. Two different protocols that need pretransmission coordi...
—Conventional 802.11 medium access control (MAC) characteristics. In particular, all of these designs adopted a protocols have been designed separately from the characteristics s...
Abstract. We study asynchronous packet radio networks in which transmissions among nodes may be delayed. We consider the task of broadcasting a message generated by the source node...
—The inherent channel characteristics of impulse-based UWB networks affect the MAC layer performance significantly. Most previous studies on evaluating MAC protocols are based o...

In a multi-hop mobile ad hoc network (MANET) mobile nodes communicate with each other forming a cooperative radio network. Security remains a major challenge for these networks du...
