— In sensor networks, MAC protocols based on Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) with wakeup and sleep periods have attracted considerable interest because of their low power co...
In this paper, we study the effect of using or disengaging the RTS/CTS dialogue in IEEE 802.11 DCF MAC protocol incorporating the realistic condition under which carrier sensing, ...
—In most existing sender-initiated handshaking based underwater Media Access Control (MAC) protocols, only the initiating sender is allowed to transmit data packets to its intend...
There has been burgeoning interest in wireless technologies that can use wider frequency spectrum. Technology advances, such as 802.11n and ultra-wideband (UWB), are pushing towar...
