We propose the cross-layer based opportunistic multi-channel medium access control (MAC) protocols, which integrate the spectrum sensing at physical (PHY) layer with the packet sch...
Aggregate traffic loads and topology in multi-hop wireless networks may vary slowly, permitting MAC protocols to `learn' how to spatially coordinate and adapt contention patte...
Abstract--In distributed embedded systems operated by battery, energy management is a critical issue that has to be addressed at different architecture levels. For systems that tig...
