Token passing medium access control (MAC) protocols are gaining interest amongst wireless ad hoc network researchers as they provide unrivalled advantages over the existing IEEE 80...
—Unlike in a wired network, a packet transmitted by a node in an ad hoc wireless network can reach all neighbors. Therefore, the total number of transmissions (forward nodes) is ...
In this paper, we describe a novel localization algorithm for ad hoc wireless sensor networks. Accurate selforganization and localization capability is a highly desirable character...
Topology management schemes conserve energy in wireless ad hoc networks by identifying redundant nodes that may turn off their radios or other components while maintaining connec...
Ubiquitous computing environments are typically based upon ad hoc networks of mobile computing devices. These devices may be equipped with sensor hardware to sense the physical en...
