—This paper considers the performance of the MAC protocols ALOHA and CSMA in wireless ad hoc networks, where the total system bandwidth may be divided into smaller subbands. In t...
A mobile ad hoc network consists of mobile nodes that can move freely in an open environment. Communicating nodes in a wireless and mobile ad hoc network usually seek the help of ...

In this paper, we propose an on-demand distributed clustering algorithm for multi-hop packet radio networks. These types of networks, also known as ad hoc networks, are dynamic in ...
We propose the cross-layer based opportunistic multi-channel medium access control (MAC) protocols, which integrate the spectrum sensing at physical (PHY) layer with the packet sch...
We examine two aspects concerning the influence of unidirectional links on routing performance in multihop wireless networks. In the first part of the paper, we evaluate the benef...
