The pervasiveness of wireless communication recently gave mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) a significant researcher's attention, due to its innate capabilities of instant commu...
Abstract—We study the ubiquitous data collection for mobile users in wireless sensor networks. People with handheld devices can easily interact with the network and collect data....
Wireless sensor nodes generally face serious limitations in terms of computational power, energy supply, and network bandwidth. Therefore, the implementation of effective and sec...
—The application of directional antennas in wireless networks brings numerous benefits, such as increased spatial reuse and mitigated interferences. Most MAC protocols with dire...
— Broadcast protocols play a vital role in multihop wireless networks. Due to the broadcast nature of radio signals, a node’s interference range can be larger than its transmis...
