— Recent advance in IEEE 802.11 based standard has pushed the wireless bandwidth up to 600Mbps while keeping the same wireless medium access control (MAC) schemes for full backwa...
IEEE 802.15.4 is a new standard uniquely designed for low-rate wireless personal area networks. It targets ultralow complexity, cost, and power for low-rate wireless connectivity a...
—Existing handover schemes in wireless LANs, 3G/4G networks, and femtocells rely upon protocols involving centralized authentication servers and one or more access points. These ...
— In Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs), the collaborative operation of sensors enables the distributed sensing of a physical phenomenon, while actors collect and process...
Abstract— In this paper, we address the problem of providing traffic quality of service and energy efficiency in ad hoc wireless networks. We consider a network that is shared ...
