The IEEE 802.11x MAC protocol, the de facto standard for wireless LANs, includes a distributed coordination function (DCF) mode usable for ad hoc network architectures. The Transm...
TCP can perform poorly in multi-hop wireless networks due to problems that arise with contention and mobility. Endto-end protocols are at an inherent disadvantage in trying to sol...
Abstract—Wireless networks (including wireless mesh networks) provide opportunities for using multiple paths. Multihoming of hosts, possibly using different technologies and prov...
