— This paper analyzes and designs medium access control (MAC) protocols for wireless ad-hoc networks through the network utility maximization (NUM) framework. We first reverse-e...
—In a wireless network, data transmission suffers from varied signal strengths and channel bit error rates. To ensure successful packet reception under different channel conditio...
Multihop infrastructure wireless mesh networks offer increased reliability, coverage, and reduced equipment costs over their single-hop counterpart, wireless local area networks. E...
Abstract—We consider an interference-limited wireless network, where multiple source-destination pairs compete for the same pool of relay nodes. In an attempt to maximize the sum...
Abstract—In this paper, we review the most important performance characteristics of the 802.11 DCF wireless networks, point out some false common knowledge, and report on recent ...
