—Internet application performance over wireless links is disappointing, due to wireless impairments and their adverse interactions with higher protocol layers. In order to effect...
— Distributed channel access is essential for a wireless network without a central controller. In our previous research, we have proposed a distributed channel access scheme to a...
Understanding the performance of backoff algorithms in multihop ad hoc networks is a key feature to design efficient Medium Access Protocols for wireless networks. The 802.11 bac...
—Heterogeneous wireless networks employ varying degrees of network coverage using power control in a multi-tier configuration, where low-power femtocells are used to enhance per...
Abstract--Distributed medium access control (MAC) is essential for a wireless network without a central controller. In previous work of the authors, a distributed MAC scheme has be...
