—In this paper, we introduce a cross-layer design framework to the multiple access problem in contention-based wireless ad hoc networks. The motivation for this study is twofold,...
In this paper we investigate the performance of IEEE 802.11b ad hoc networks by means of an experimental study. This analysis reveals several aspects that are usually neglected in...

— In this paper, we address the impact of different access strategies in ad hoc networks with multiple antennas and MIMO communications. We employ a cross–layer designed MAC pr...
Abstract--Wireless networks, especially mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) and cognitive radio networks (CRN), are facing two new challenges beyond traditional random network model: op...
This paper presents ARC (Adaptive Range Control), a communication range control mechanism using directional antennas to be implemented across multiple layers. ARC uses directional...
