Errors introduced by a wireless medium are more frequent and profound than contemporary wired media. Some of these errors, which are not corrected by the physical layer, result in...
The diversity of applications and typically scarce node resources set very tight constraints to Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). It is not possible to fulfill all requirements with...
Outage probabilities in wireless networks depend on various factors: the node distribution, the MAC scheme, and the models for path loss, fading and transmission success. In prior ...
