— In this paper, we propose a contention based uplink Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol design for Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) with Spatial Division Multiple Access (...
In this article, we present a simple yet accurate generic analytical model for a family of slotted carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) based medium ac...
— Recent years have seen tremendous growth in the deployment of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). An important design issue in such networks is that of distributed scheduling...
This paper investigates the energy cost of control packets in schedule-based medium access control protocols in wireless sensor networks. Control packets can be useful not only to ...
The many-to-one multihop traffic pattern of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) puts a great challenge on enhancing the event-to-sink data delivery throughput. Because, in CSMA/CA dri...
