Wireless Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols such as IEEE 802.11 use distributed contention resolution mechanisms for sharing the wireless channel. In this environment, selfish...
In this paper, we propose a real time scheduling policy over 802.11 DCF protocol called Deadline Monotonic (DM). We evaluate the performance of this policy for a simple scenario w...
—In recent years, cooperative communication has been proposed as a new communication paradigm that incorporates a relay node to assist the direct point-to-point transmission. By ...
— We consider the design of the MAC layer for low power, low data-rate, impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IRUWB) networks. In such networks, the primary concern is energy consumptio...
