Abstract— Unlike the terrestrial wireless networks that utilize the radio channel, underwater networks use the acoustic channel, which poses research challenges in the medium acc...
—This paper considers the performance of the MAC protocols ALOHA and CSMA in wireless ad hoc networks, where the total system bandwidth may be divided into smaller subbands. In t...
In this paper, we study end-to-end performance characteristics of S-MAC, an energy-aware medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSN). WSNs are composed...
