—Using directional antennas to conserve bandwidth and energy consumption in ad hoc wireless networks has attracted much attention of the research community in recent years. Howev...
Three collision-avoidance protocols are analyzed that use omni-directional packet reception together with omnidirectional transmissions, directional transmissions, or a combinatio...
Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna systems present a radical way to improve the performance of wireless communications. Such systems can be utilized in wireless ad hoc n...
We consider ad hoc wireless networks that use directional antennas and have limited energy resources. To explore quantitatively the advantage offered by the use of directional ante...
