Abstract--In this paper, we deal with the performance of nonorthogonal Amplify-and-Forward protocols over block-fading channels (BFNAF), where the source retransmits the same data ...

—In wireless networks, node cooperation has been exploited as a data relaying mechanism for decades. However, the wireless channel allows for much richer interaction among nodes....
A random access protocol named ALLIANCES was recently proposed, that achieves high throughput by resolving collisions in wireless networks. ALLIANCES exploits diversity provided b...
Heterogeneous multihop wireless networks such as wireless mesh networks consist of a set of resource-constrained mobile nodes that want to communicate with each other and a set of...
