Abstract—We introduce and analyze CARMA-MC (for Collision Avoidance and Resolution Multiple Access MultiChannel), a new stable channel access protocol for multihop wireless netwo...
A new modeling framework is introduced for the analytical study of medium access control (MAC) protocols operating in multihop ad hoc networks. The model takes into account the e...

— Cooperative communications can help combat fading and hence can significantly increase the capacity of wireless networks. Although various schemes have been proposed to levera...
The design and evaluation of Inter-Vehicle Communication (IVC) protocols rely much on the accurate and efficient computational simulations. For simulations of Medium Access Contro...
— Directional antennas in multihop wireless networks offer a potential increase in the spatial reuse of the wireless channel. However, existing directional MAC protocols are not ...
