Smart antennas are expected to enhance scalability in ad hoc networks. This paper at first evaluates three directional MAC protocols, DMAC, MMAC and SWAMP as well as the omni-dir...
Abstract— We present a model for the joint design of congestion control and media access control (MAC) for ad hoc wireless networks. Using contention graph and contention matrix,...
An efficient addressing scheme is necessary for auto-configuration and seamless communication in pervasive computing environments. In this paper, we propose an efficient and simple...
Frequency hopping is a technique that wireless devices communicate in a way that the transmission frequencies are alternated in a pre-determined ordered hopping pattern known only...
Using decentralized reputation systems is a promising approach to ensuring cooperation and fairness in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks. However, they are vulnerable to liars and robustness...
