—In this paper, we present Black Burst Synchronization (BBS)1 , a novel protocol for decentralized network-wide tick synchronization in wireless ad hoc networks, located at MAC l...
A routing protocol is designed considering a particular environment all the time which is not possible in the case of practical ad hoc networks. Because of the uncertainty in topol...
Even without possible interference from external radio sources, the problem of guaranteeing quality-of-service (QoS) routing in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is a difficult probl...
— Battery power is an important resource in ad hoc networks. It has been observed that in ad hoc networks, energy consumption does not reflect the communication activities in th...
We propose the cross-layer based opportunistic multi-channel medium access control (MAC) protocols, which integrate the spectrum sensing at physical (PHY) layer with the packet sch...
