—This paper considers the performance of the MAC protocols ALOHA and CSMA in wireless ad hoc networks, where the total system bandwidth may be divided into smaller subbands. In t...
Reliability-aware power management (RAPM) schemes, which consider the negative effects of voltage scaling on system reliability, were recently studied to save energy while preserv...
—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...
—Frequency-domain equalization (FDE) based on the minimum mean square error (MMSE) criterion can provide a better bit error rate (BER) performance than rake combining. However, t...
– Existing terminal oriented handover mechanisms capable of meeting the strict delay bounds of real time applications such as VoIP do not consider the QoS of candidate handover n...
