Interactions Between TCP and the IEEE 802.11 MAC Protocol
The IEEE 802.11x MAC protocol, the de facto standard for wireless LANs, includes a distributed coordination function (DCF) mode usable for ad hoc network architectures. The Transm...

A Weight Based Distributed Clustering Algorithm for Mobile ad hoc Networks
In this paper, we propose a distributed clustering algorithm for a multi-hop packet radio network. These types of networks, also known as ad hoc networks, are dynamic in nature due...
