The throughput performance of the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) of the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol quickly degrades as the number of contending stations increases. To solve...

One of the key challenges in designing a rate adaptation scheme for IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs (WLANs) is to differentiate bit errors from link-layer collisions. Many recent rate a...
In IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs, the DCF access method and the PCF access method operate alternatively within a superframe to service the time-varying traffic demands. Due to differ...

StaticPSM (Power-Saving Mode)schemes employed in the current IEEE 802.11 implementations could not provide any delag-performance guarantee because of their fixed wakeup intervals. ...
Abstract—In this paper, to improve the performance of multihop wireless networks, we explore a cross layer multirate adaptation scheme (we call it CROMA) that uses the phenomenon...
