Recently ultra-wideband (UWB) communications has emerged as an alternative to narrowband communications used in wireless sensor networks. One of UWB(s) most attractive feature for...
—Wireless sensor network (WSN) applications require redundant sensors to guarantee fault tolerance. However, the same degree of redundancy is not necessary for multi-hop communic...
Wireless systems that form a body-area network must be made small and low power without sacrificing performance. To achieve high-throughput communication in low-cost wireless bod...
Wireless sensor networks consist of a large number of tiny sensors that have only limited energy supply. One of the major challenges in constructing such networks is to maintain l...
—Network calculus is a recently developed theory dealing with queuing systems found in computer networks with focus on service guarantee analysis. In the current network calculus...
