This paper discusses the ideal shapes of control frames (i.e., RTS/CTS frames) in the IEEE 802.11 MAC layer for efficient power control and directional beam forming in mobile ad h...
— In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), the hidden and the exposed terminal problems affect the throughput of the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols. Several MAC schemes have be...
One important challenge in wireless ad hoc networks is to achieve collision free communication. Many MAC layer protocols have been proposed by considering various communication mod...
Since wireless ad-hoc networks use shared communication medium, accesses to the medium must be coordinated to avoid packet collisions. Transmission scheduling algorithms allocate ...
Abstract. Well-scheduled communications, in conjunction with the aggregation of data reduce the energy waste on idle listening and redundant transmissions. In addition, the adjusta...
