—In this paper, we introduce a cross-layer design framework to the multiple access problem in contention-based wireless ad hoc networks. The motivation for this study is twofold,...
Medium Access Control (MAC) policies in which the scheduling time slots are allocated irrespectively of the underline topology are suitable for ad-hoc networks, where nodes can ent...
—In Ad Hoc networking, cluster-based communication protocol can reduce large amount of flooding packets in route establishment process. However, the 802.11 medium access control ...
