Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are one of the few commonly implemented types of mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs); several companies offer WMNs for broadband Internet access and for ...
Virtual circuits can reduce routing overheads with irregular topologies and provide support for a mix of quality of service (QOS) requirements. Information about network loads and...
An ad hoc network is a dynamically reconfigurable wireless network with no fixed infrastructure or central administration. Each host is mobile and must act as a router. Routing and...
Cognitive radio (CR) emerges as a key technology to enhance spectrum efficiency and thus creates opportunistic transmissions over links. Supporting the routing function on top of n...
Abstract—Cognitive radio (CR) technology enables the opportunistic use of the vacant licensed frequency bands, thereby improving the spectrum utilization. However, the CR operati...
