A new multichannel MAC protocol called Hop-Reservation Multiple Access (HRMA) for wireless ad-hoc networks (multi-hop packet radio networks) is introduced, specified and analyzed. ...
In this paper, we outline a simple approach, called ROAR, that enables the Ad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol to strengthen its routes by recruiting neighbors...
Smart antennas are expected to enhance scalability in ad hoc networks. This paper at first evaluates three directional MAC protocols, DMAC, MMAC and SWAMP as well as the omni-dir...
Nodes in an ad hoc wireless network incur certain costs for forwarding packets since packet forwarding consumes the resources of the nodes. If the nodes are rational, free packet f...
An efficient addressing scheme is necessary for auto-configuration and seamless communication in pervasive computing environments. In this paper, we propose an efficient and simple...
