— Directional antennas in multihop wireless networks offer a potential increase in the spatial reuse of the wireless channel. However, existing directional MAC protocols are not ...
In this paper, we propose a new Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for full exploitation of directional antennas in wireless networks. The protocol introduces a circular directio...
Impulse Radio Ultra Wide Band (IR-UWB) is a promising technology to address Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) constraints. However, existing network simulation tools do not provide a ...
Initially designed for WLAN's, IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) has also been widely used in the research of multihop wireless networks. The core MAC technique of IEEE ...
—We present a novel approach for minimizing the energy consumption of medium access control (MAC) protocols developed for duty-cycled wireless sensor networks (WSN) for the unslo...
