IEEE 802.11 MAC, called the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), employs carrier sensing to effectively avoid collisions, but this makes it difficult to maximally reuse the sp...
— Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) are seen as an essential technology to support future Pervasive Computing Scenarios and 4G networks. In a MANET, efficient support of multipoint...
In Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET), mobility, traffic and node density are main network conditions that significantly affect the performance of routing protocols. Much of the previou...
Most ad hoc mobile devices in wireless networks operate on batteries and power consumption is therefore an important issue for wireless network design. In this paper, we propose an...
Many interesting applications using mobile ad-hoc networks are possible if quality-of-service (QoS) can be effectively supported. Towards that end, this paper proposes a method ba...
