The specific challenges of multihop wireles networks lead to a strong research effort on efficient protocols design where the offered capacity is a key objective. More specifically...
— In this paper, we propose a novel asynchronous Media Access Control (MAC) protocol, Opportunistic MAC (OMAC), for Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) ad-hoc networks. The pro...

—In this paper, we present a model to analyze the performance of three transmission strategies with smart antennas, i.e. directional antennas with adjustable transmission power. ...
Due to the fact that high datarate has shorter transmission range, the benefit of using high datarate may be degraded for IEEE 802.11 based multihop ad hoc networks. In this paper...
