Carrier Sense Multi-Access (CSMA) is a typical method to share the common channel in a Wireless LAN (WLAN). It works fairly well in times of light traffic. However as the number of...
This paper bears on the design and the quantitative evaluation of MAC mechanisms for wireless ad-hoc networks with performance guarantees. By this, we mean mechanisms where each ac...
Abstract—Cognitive radio networks (CRN) may greatly enhance the throughput based on a given bandwidth. CRN has a unique feature, consisting of uni-directional opportunistic wirel...
—We consider a wireless cognitive radio network in which a set of secondary users (SUs) opportunistically utilize the wireless spectrum licensed to the primary users (PUs) to tra...
This paper presents novel methodologies which allow robust secret key extraction from radio channel measurements which suffer from real-world non-reciprocities and a priori unkno...
