Abstract— A distributed medium access control (MAC) algorithm for uplink OFDMA networks under the IEEE 802.16 framework is proposed and analyzed in this work. We present a simple...
—The inherent channel characteristics of impulse-based UWB networks affect the MAC layer performance significantly. Previous studies on evaluating MAC protocols are based on pro...

—Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a physical (PHY) layer technology that promises high transmission rates, as well as high resistance to noise and multipath effects. However, the impulseb...
—A key technology in cooperative communications is distributed space-time coding (DSTC) which achieves spatial diversity gain from multiple relays. A novel DSTC, called randomize...
