—Duty-cycle MAC protocols have been proposed to meet the demanding energy requirements of wireless sensor networks. Although existing duty-cycle MAC protocols such as S-MAC are p...
Abstract—This paper studies the problem of utility maximization for clients with delay based QoS requirements in wireless networks. We adopt a model used in a previous work that ...
Emerging dual-mode phones incorporate a Wireless LAN (WLAN) interface along with the traditional cellular interface. The additional benefits of the WLAN interface are, however, lik...
Abstract—Proportional Fair (PF) is a frequently used channelaware scheduling algorithm in 3G wireless networks. However, recent work by us and others has shown that, in practice,...
— For most of wireless services with variable rate transmission, both average rate and rate oscillation are important performance metrics. One often needs to decide how much rate...
