IEEE 802.11, the standard of wireless local area networks (WLANs), allows the coexistence of asynchronous and time-bounded traffic using the distributed coordination function (DCF)...
Abstract—Home area networks (HANs) promise to enable sophisticated home automation applications such as smart energy usage and assisted living. However, recent empirical study of...
We present the design, implementation, and evaluation of a Time Division Multiplex (TDM) MAC protocol for multihop wireless mesh networks using a programmable wireless platform. E...
A collision resolution scheme is essential to the performance of a random-access wireless network. Most schemes employ exponential backoff (EB) to adjust the transmission attempt ...
Frequency overlap across wireless networks with different radio technologies can cause severe interference and reduce communication reliability. The circumstances are particularly...
