IEEE 802.11 has become the main technology in local area wireless networks. However, performance anomalies, especially, in terms of fairness, arise in its use in ad hoc networks. ...
In wireless LAN technology, access point selection at each station is a critical problem in order to obtain satisfactory throughputs. The current protocol for access point selecti...
— The coexistence and interworking of IEEE 802.16 and IEEE 802.11 is an acute problem. The frame-based medium access of 802.16 requires rigorous protection against interference f...

— The current access point (AP) association schemes in wireless LANs, such as IEEE 802.11, cause an unbalanced load which reduces the performance of both the entire network and i...
— “Word-of-Mouth”, a novel scheme for sharing the service quality experienced with different local networks, is presented and evaluated as a distributed solution for performi...
