Broadband wireless access networks, such as the IEEE 802.16 standard for wireless metropolitan area networks (WMANs), aim to provide high bandwidth, low-cost, scalable solutions t...
In this paper we develop an intergraded model for request mechanism and data transmission in the uplink phase in the presence of channel noise. This model supports quality of serv...
Wireless IEEE 802.11 networks are typically deployed as a convenient and flexible way to access wired backbones. However, due to the inherently shared nature and physical propert...
—Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) are networks of wirelessly interconnected devices that allow retrieving video and audio streams, still images, and scalar sensor data...
This paper presents a distributed scheduling algorithm for the support of QoS in multiaccess networks. Unlike most contention-based multiaccess protocols which o er no QoS guarant...
