Abstract-- Two-tier networks, comprising a conventional cellular network overlaid with shorter range hotspots (e.g. femtocells, distributed antennas, or wired relays), offer an eco...
How to reduce the handoff delay and how to make appropriate handoff decisions are two fundamental challenges in designing an effective handoff scheme for 802.11 networks to provide...
Abstract-- Due to the limited energy supplies of nodes in wireless networks, achieving energy efficiency is crucial for extending the lifetime of these networks. Thus, we study eff...
