A PHY and MAC protocol for MIMO concurrent transmissions, called Contrabass, is presented. Concurrent transmissions, also referred to as multi-user MIMO, are simultaneous transmis...
Scalability and extended lifetime are two critical design goals of any large scale wireless sensor network. A two-tiered network model has been proposed recently for this purpose....
An analytical model is proposed to describe the priority schemes of the EDCA mechanism of the IEEE 802.11e standard. EDCA provides class-based differentiated QoS to IEEE 802.11 WL...
A number of studies have shown the abundance of unused spectrum in the TV bands. This is in stark contrast to the overcrowding of wireless devices in the ISM bands. A recent trend...

—In this paper, we study the distributed spectrum allocation for autonomous users transmitting delay-sensitive information over a wireless multi-carrier network. Because there is...
