This paper proposes a new principle for designing MAC protocols for spread spectrum based ad hoc networks ? inducing spatial clustering in contending transmitters/receivers. We fi...
Recent studies on directional Media Access Control (MAC) protocols using smart antennas for wireless ad hoc networks have shown that directional MAC protocols outperform traditiona...
Topological changes in mobile ad hoc networks frequently render routing paths unusable. Such recurrent path failures have detrimental effects on the network ability to support QoS...
Fairness in multihop ad hoc networks has received considerable attention in the literature. Many schemes have been proposed, which attempt to compute the “optimal” bit rates o...
—In this paper, towards improving spatial reuse in a cellular network, we consider augmenting it with wireless ad hoc connectivity. The coverage area of each base-station is redu...
