Multi-hop ad hoc wireless networks generally use the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) MAC protocol, which utilizes the request-to-send/clear-to-send (RTS/CTS) me...
This paper analyzes distributed asynchronous power and rate control for wireless ad hoc networks. Importantly, all network transmitters are considered to be independent of any mana...
—Using directional antennas can be beneficial for wireless ad hoc networks consisting of a collection of wireless hosts. To best utilize directional antennas, a suitable Medium ...
