—We propose a distributed scheduling and active queue management mechanism for wireless ad hoc networks. The approach is based on a random access scheduler where the transmission...
— Medium access control (MAC) protocols have been studied under different contexts for several years now. In all these MAC protocols, nodes make independent decisions on when to ...
IEEE 802.11 has become the main technology in local area wireless networks. However, performance anomalies, especially, in terms of fairness, arise in its use in ad hoc networks. ...
Although directional antennas have been used in mobile communications systems for quite a long time, realistic applications of directional or smart antennas in wireless ad hoc net...
Most of the routing protocols in wireless ad hoc networks, such as DSR, assume nodes are trustworthy and cooperative. This assumption renders wireless ad hoc networks vulnerable to...
