—The hot spot problem is a typical byproduct of the many-to-one traffic pattern that characterizes most wireless sensor networks: the nodes with the best channel to the sink are ...
Sensor networks are designed especially for deployment in adverse and nonaccessible areas without a fixed infrastructure. Therefore, energy conservation plays a crucial role for t...
Ethernet line rates are projected to reach 100 Gbits/s by as soon as 2010. While in principle suitable for high performance clustered and parallel applications, Ethernet requires ...
In this contribution, we propose an improved system architecture focusing on system reference and protocol stack for broadband wireless access networks. The proposal aims to constr...
A large number of the MAC protocols proposed for establishing wireless sensor networks are based on the 802.11 standard. The trade-off in these protocols is the control packet ov...
