A MAC Layer Protocol for Priority-based Reliable Multicast in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
RTS-CTS handshake based protocols achieve “reliable unicast” by eliminating the hidden node problem effectively, however, these solutions are not directly or efficiently gene...

Route Recovery Mechanisms for Ad Hoc Networks Equipped with Switched Single Beam Antennas
In this paper we propose a novel three phase route recovery mechanism for routing over switched single beam directional antennas. We enhance the popular Dynamic Source Routing (DS...

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...
