We investigate the timing properties of the timed token protocol that are necessary to guarantee synchronous message deadlines. A tighter upper bound on the elapse time between the...
The paper presents the performance advantage of Wireless Token Ring Protocol (WTRP) versus IEEE 802.11 in DCF mode. WTRP is a medium access control (MAC) protocol and is designed ...

In this paper we present an analysis of a MAC (Medium Access Control) protocol for wireless sensor networks. The purpose of this protocol is to manage wireless media access by con...
In this paper we address the real-time capabilities of P-NET, which is a multi-master fieldbus standard based on a virtual token passing scheme. We show how P-NET's medium ac...
Abstract--There has been a great deal of attention on cooperative communication which exploits the spatial diversity among antennas belonging to multiple terminals. Most of the exi...
