A medium access control (MAC) protocol is proposed that is suitable for non-synchronized ad-hoc networks, and in particular for the energy-constrained underwater acoustic networks...
The hidden terminal problem is unique to wireless networks and as of now, there is very limited understanding about it's effects on network performance. Results are presented...
We present in this paper an analytical model that accounts for the positions of stations with respect to the Access Point (AP) while evaluating the performance of 802.11 MAC layer...

Packet reservation multiple access (PRMA) protocol is an implicit reservation MAC protocol. It is initially designed for voice packets in the cellular networks [2], [3] but it is...
It has been shown that IEEE 802.11 DCF medium access control (MAC) protocol may not be suitable for multihop wireless networks due to its relatively low throughput and severely un...
