—In this paper, the problem of estimating the link quality in mesh networks has been considered. Such a process is a major task to develop an efficient network layer, since it a...
Inspired by the collective foraging behavior of specific ant species, ant-based routing algorithms are able to find optimal or near optimal packet routes for Wireless Mesh Network...
Abstract-- Due to the limited energy supplies of nodes in wireless networks, achieving energy efficiency is crucial for extending the lifetime of these networks. Thus, we study eff...
