Energy is the most crucial but scarce resource in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). A wealth of MAC protocols are proposed only to prolong the network lifetime for energy-efficienc...
Relay-assisted cooperative wireless communication has been shown to have significant performance gains over the legacy direct transmission scheme. Compared with single relay base...

This paper proposes a novel reliable multicast transport protocol for multi-hop, wireless ad hoc networks (or MANETs). To recover from the different types of losses that may occur ...
Abstract. The RTS/CTS access scheme, designed to reduce the number of collisions in a IEEE 802.11 network, is known to exhibit problems due to masked nodes, the imbalance between t...
