Providing continuous video playback with graceful quality degradation over wireless channels is fraught with challenges. Video applications require stringent delay guarantees and ...
— This paper proposes a mathematical framework for evaluating the throughput of an 802.11 Distributed Wireless Network (DWN) when the system allows Multi-Packet Reception (MPR) i...
— The medium-access control (MAC) protocols for wireless networks proposed or implemented to date based on collision-avoidance handshakes between sender and receiver either requi...
—Rate adaptation is a critical component that impacts the performance of IEEE 802.11 wireless networks. In congested networks, traditional rate adaptation algorithms have been sh...
—IEEE 802.11 DCF is the MAC protocol currently used in wireless LANs. 802.11 DCF is inefficient due to two types of overhead; channel idle time and collision time. This paper pr...
