For data-collection applications in sensor networks, it is important to ensure base station receives a complete picture about the monitored area. Convergecast is an important commu...
An important problem in wireless networks, such as wireless ad hoc and sensor networks, is to select a few nodes to form a virtual backbone that supports routing and other tasks s...
The ns-2 simulator has limited support for simulating 802.11based wireless mesh networks. We have added the following new features at the MAC and PHY layer of ns-2: (i) cumulative...
