—Wireless Mesh Networks represent an interesting technology due to their reliability, broad coverage and relatively easy and inexpensive scalability. The architecture is mainly a...
In this paper, we present an access scheme to satisfy the QoS requirements for two classes of traffic during the contention phase of packet-switched wireless communications. In the...
— Directional antennas can be useful in significantly increasing node and network lifetime in wireless ad hoc networks. In order to utilize directional antennas, an algorithm is ...
Most network engineering tools are unsatisfactory. Measurements are not predictive, simulations do not scale, and analysis is limited to oversimplified models. To be more useful, ...
Energy conservation is a critical issue in wireless ad hoc networks since batteries are the only energy source to power the nodes. One major metric for energy conservation is to r...
