Abstract--It was shown recently that carrier sense multiple access (CSMA)-like distributed algorithms can achieve the maximal throughput in wireless networks (and task processing n...
—Designing efficient scheduling algorithms is an important problem in a general class of networks with resourcesharing constraints, such as wireless networks and stochastic proc...
IEEE 802.11 has become the main technology in local area wireless networks. However, performance anomalies, especially, in terms of fairness, arise in its use in ad hoc networks. ...
Although directional antennas have been used in mobile communications systems for quite a long time, realistic applications of directional or smart antennas in wireless ad hoc net...
—The paper analyzes the relationships among the transmission range, carrier sensing range, and interference range in case that power control is adopted and proposes an adaptive r...
