—Dynamic spectrum access (DSA) aims to improve spectrum efficiency via spectrum sensing and optimal spectrum access. An essential component in DSA is the joint design of sensing...
– MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) is capable of offering several-fold increase in spectral efficiency over singleantenna systems through spatial processing. However, curren...
—Conventional 802.11 medium access control (MAC) characteristics. In particular, all of these designs adopted a protocols have been designed separately from the characteristics s...
In this paper, architectures for two-dimensional and three-dimensional underwater sensor networks are discussed. A detailed overview on the current solutions for medium access con...
