— In wireless ad hoc networks (WANETs), e.g. wireless sensor networks, battery-powered devices are constrained by limited amount of energy. Many WANET applications require that t...
Abstract— Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) employed in monitoring applications require data collected by the sensors to be deposited at specific nodes, referred to as drains. To ...
—We examine a widely accepted myth about passive listening in wireless networks, and give a detailed description of how to achieve real “passive listening.” Then we develop a...
— Infrastructure-based overlay networks have been proposed to support the quality of service requirements of a wide range of applications. In this paper, we study using infrastru...
Abstract—Directional antennas are expected to provide significant improvements over omni-directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks. Directional MAC protocols, however, int...
