—The mandatory access mode in IEEE 802.11 MAC is Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), which provides both basic access and RTS/CTS(request-to-send/clear-to-send) access. Prev...
Wide-spread deployment of infrastructure WLANs has made Wi-Fi an integral part of today’s Internet access technology. Despite its crucial role in affecting end-to-end performan...
In this paper, we propose Spacing-based Channel Occupancy Regulation (SCORE) MAC protocol that provides proportional service differentiation in terms of normalized throughput in w...
— Wireless multi-hop, mesh networks are being considered as a candidate to backhaul data traffic from access networks to the wired Internet. These mesh networks are referred to a...
