In this paper, we introduce a modified version of the IEEE 802.11a protocol and evaluate its performance. The new protocol is a combination of the standard Medium Access Control (...
An M/MMGI/1/K queuing model is developed for the analysis of IEEE 802.11 DCF using RTS/CTS. Results are based on arbitrary contention conditions, namely, collision probabilities, ...
This paper studies the performance of a multi-rate mobile ad hoc network (MANET) using an extended ns-2 simulator. A link adaptation algorithm is developed and tested. The multi-r...
In many instances, an ad hoc network consists of nodes with different hardware and software capabilities as well as power limitations. This is the case of ad hoc grids where devi...
