This paper discusses the ideal shapes of control frames (i.e., RTS/CTS frames) in the IEEE 802.11 MAC layer for efficient power control and directional beam forming in mobile ad h...
Ad-hoc networks are perceived as communities of autonomous devices that interconnect with each other. Typically, they have dynamic topologies and cannot rely on a continuous conne...
Research domains such as active networks, ad-hoc networks, ubiquitous computing, pervasive computing, grid computing, and sensor networks, clearly show that computer networks will...

We address the connectivity of large-scale ad hoc cognitive radio networks, where secondary users exploit channels temporarily and locally unused by primary users and the existenc...
Due to the limited energy supplies of nodes in many applications like wireless sensor networks, energy efficiency is crucial for extending the lifetime of these networks. This pape...
