The more information about current network conditions available to a transport protocol, the more efficiently it can use the network to transfer its data. In networks such as the...
— Sensor networks consist of autonomous nodes with limited battery and of base stations with theoritical infinite energy. Nodes can be sleep to extend the lifespan of the networ...
The presence of physical obstacles and radio interference results in the so called “shadow regions” in wireless networks. When a mobile station roams into a shadow region, it ...
