—Most of the deployed IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) use infrastructure Basic Service Set (BSS) in which an Access Point (AP) serves as a gateway between wired ...
— Most of the existing WLAN MAC protocols can only provide limited service differentiation. In this paper, we propose a novel token-based scheduling scheme for precise and quanti...
In contention-based sensor networks, nodes compete to access a shared channel for data transmission and collision is a common challenge. For power conservation, periodical active/s...
—This paper addresses the dynamics of broadcast flooding in random wireless ad hoc networks. In particular, we study the subset of nodes covered by a flood as well as timing is...
