— As wireless access technologies improve in data rates, the problem focus is shifting towards providing adequate backhaul from the wireless access points to the Internet. Existi...
We present the hybrid activation multiple access (HAMA) protocol for ad hoc networks. Unlike previous channel access scheduling protocols that activate either nodes or links only,...
Abstract— Network throughput and packet delay are two important parameters in the design and the evaluation of routing protocols for ad-hoc networks. While mobility has been show...
— We consider packet transmission scheduling at the MAC-layer via adaptive backoff algorithms that are favorable in terms of queue occupancies in a wireless network. General netw...
In contention-based sensor networks, nodes compete to access a shared channel for data transmission and collision is a common challenge. For power conservation, periodical active/s...
