Cooperative-Diversity Slotted ALOHA
We propose a cooperative-diversity technique for ad hoc networks based on the decode-and-forward relaying strategy. We develop a MAC protocol based on slotted ALOHA that allows ne...

Protocol assessment issues in low duty cycle sensor networks: The switching energy
Energy assessment of MAC protocols for wireless sensor networks is generally based on the times of transmit, receive and sleep modes. The switching energy between two consecutive ...

On the Impact of Channel Estimation Errors on MAC Protocols for MIMO Ad Hoc Networks
In this paper, we evaluate the performance of a Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for MIMO ad hoc networks under imperfect channel estimation. To this end, we also present an an...
