Due to the limited energy supplies of nodes in many applications like wireless sensor networks, energy efficiency is crucial for extending the lifetime of these networks. This pape...
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) provide rapidly deployable and self-configuring network capacity required in many critical applications, e.g., battlefields, disaster relief and ...
—In this paper, we introduce a cross-layer design framework to the multiple access problem in contention-based wireless ad hoc networks. The motivation for this study is twofold,...
—High node mobility and transient connectivity in Vehicular Ad Hoc NETworks have introduced numerous challenges in the design of efficient communication protocols for these netwo...
Building a “Straightforward” path in wireless ad hoc sensor networks (WASNs) not only avoids wasting energy in detours, but also incurs less interference in other transmission...
