This paper presents ARC (Adaptive Range Control), a communication range control mechanism using directional antennas to be implemented across multiple layers. ARC uses directional...
Recently, several MAC protocols using directional antennas have been proposed for ad hoc networks, which are mainly evaluated by computer simulations. This paper develops a MAC pr...
Wireless mesh networks have increasingly become an object of interest in recent years as a strong alternative to purely wired infrastructure networks and purely mobile wireless ne...
Abstract—Previous work has shown that CSMA-based protocols such as the IEEE 802.11 can yield flow starvation in multihop wireless networks. While prior protocol designs alleviat...

—Increasingly wireless networks use multi-antenna nodes as in IEEE 802.11n and 802.16. The Physical layer (PHY) in such systems may use the antennas to provide multiple streams o...
