An experimental study of MANET using 802.11b has shown that there exist several configurations where this standard does not guarantee fairness for the channel access. In this pap...
Power conservation is a general concern for mobile computing and communication. In this paper, we investigate the performance of the current 802.11 power saving mechanism (unschedu...
In this paper, we propose a new Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for full exploitation of directional antennas in wireless networks. The protocol introduces a circular directio...
