Carrier sense is often used to regulate concurrency in wireless medium access control (MAC) protocols, balancing interference protection and spatial reuse. Carrier sense is known ...
Small-form-factor, low-power wireless sensors—motes—are convenient to deploy, but lack the bandwidth to capture and transmit raw high-frequency data, such as human voices or n...

In this paper we study the impact of the medium access control (MAC) layer and the routing layer on the performance of a multi-hop wireless network. At the medium access control la...
—Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) are emerging as a flexible and low-cost alternative to provide digital inclusion through multi-hop communications, supporting applications from las...
