Abstract— The ability of smart antennas to improve performance in a typically constrained ad-hoc network environment, has helped them garner significant attention over the last ...
— Users’ demand of seamless connectivity has pushed for the development of alternatives to traditional infrastructure networks. Potential solutions should be low-cost, easily d...
MANETs are self-organizing networks composed of mobile wireless nodes with often scarce resources. Distributed applications based on the P2P paradigm are by nature good candidates...
—Carrier sensing is a medium access method widely adopted in wireless communication to protect data transfers from interference. For example, Distributed Coordination Function (D...
Abstract—Existing solutions for building wireless mesh networks suffer from reduced efficiency. This is due to lack of reliable self-configuration procedures that can dynamical...
