The IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol has inherent weakness of channel wastage while operating a Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET). In this paper, we therefore propose s...

— In this paper, we study the link layer scheduling problem in wireless ad hoc networks. In such a network, the communication links compete for the scarce and time-varying wirele...
In this paper, we evaluate the performance of a Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for MIMO ad hoc networks under imperfect channel estimation. To this end, we also present an an...
— During an emergency response, access to a reliable communication infrastructure is required to exchange accurate information in a timely manner. Various communication technolog...
—It is well known that IEEE 802.11 provides a physical layer multirate capability and, hence, MAC layer mechanisms are needed to exploit this capability. Several solutions have b...
