In this paper, we consider transmission in relatively wide-stretched power line communication (PLC) networks, where repeaters are required to bridge the source-to-destination dista...
: In this paper, we analyze the node scheduling approach of topology control in the context of reliable packet delivery. In node scheduling, only a minimum set of nodes needed for ...
The Internet has become ubiquitous and there has been tremendous growth in wireless communications in recent years. Many wireless communication techniques are commercially availab...
Sensor networks are a major new area of research. Some sensor applications, such as video surveillance, will need to be tethered for reasons of bandwidth and power requirements. T...
Since the energy budget of mobile nodes is limited, the performance of a networking protocol for such users should be evaluated in terms of its energy efficiency, in addition to t...
