Abstract—Hierarchical macro/femto-cell networks are considered as a promising technology for the improvement of indoor coverage and network capacity. In these emerging networks, ...
This paper bears on the design and the quantitative evaluation of MAC mechanisms for wireless ad-hoc networks with performance guarantees. By this, we mean mechanisms where each ac...
Cognitive radios are devices capable of sensing a large range of frequencies in order to detect the presence of primary networks and reuse their bands when they are not occupied. D...

—In this paper, we formulate an optimization problem for the design of light-tree based logical topology in Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) networks. The problem is compri...
Reducing the energy consumption by wireless communication devices is perhaps the most important issue in the widely-deployed and exponentially-growing IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs (W...
