We propose the cross-layer based opportunistic multi-channel medium access control (MAC) protocols, which integrate the spectrum sensing at physical (PHY) layer with the packet sch...
Aggregate traffic loads and topology in multi-hop wireless networks may vary slowly, permitting MAC protocols to `learn' how to spatially coordinate and adapt contention patte...
— Multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems have been emerging and attracting considerable attention recently for its potential to substantially improve system cap...

In the area of wireless sensor networks, achieving minimum energy consumption is a very important research issue. A number of energy efficient protocols have been proposed, mostly ...
The Gossip-based Sleep Protocol (GSP) is a routing protocol designed to save energy in Wireless Sensor Networks. This work presents two MAC protocols designed to complement the cha...
