In this paper, we propose a new Distributed Cooperation and Diversity Combining framework. Our focus is heterogeneous networks with devices equipped with two types of radio frequen...
Random Medium-Access-Control (MAC) algorithms have played an increasingly important role in the development of wired and wireless Local Area Networks (LANs) and yet the performanc...

Abstract. It is well known that in IEEE 802.11 networks, the assignment of low-rate and high-rate users to the same access point significantly degrades the performance of the high...
Collision awareness (CA) multiple access networks include the carrier sense multiple access (CSMA), ALOHA, and Ethernet networks. In order to maximize throughput with minimum netw...
— Motivated by the ‘beyond 3G’ vision of radio access network integration and coordinated radio resource management, a purely analytical performance assessment is presented f...
