With the continued increase of speed and capacities of computing devices and the growing needs of people for mobile computing capabilities, Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have gai...
Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have emerged recently as a technology for providing high-speed last mile connectivity in next-generation wireless networks. Several MAC protocols tha...
A new modeling framework is introduced for the analytical study of medium access control (MAC) protocols operating in multihop ad hoc networks. The model takes into account the eď...

— In this paper, we address the impact of different access strategies in ad hoc networks with multiple antennas and MIMO communications. We employ a cross–layer designed MAC pr...
—Most of geographic routing approaches in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks do not take into consideration the medium access control (MAC) and physical layers when designing a ...
