—Self-organizing networks (SON) is commonly seen as a way to increase network performance while simplifying its management. This paper investigates Packet Scheduling (PS) in the ...
In this work, we characterize the performance of pico cell networks in presence of moving users. We model various traffic types between base-stations and mobiles as different typ...
—Wireless ad hoc networks are seldom characterized by one single performance metric, yet the current literature lacks a flexible framework to assist in characterizing the design...
—In this paper we present the first field measurements taken using a new approach proposed in [1] for measuring link impairments in 802.11 WLANs. This uses a sender-side MAC/PH...
Abstract—In this paper, we present our results on the performance of MAC protocols in multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks in terms of the newly proposed metric “aggregate multi-...

—Since sensor nodes use batteries as their source of energy, energy-based routing becomes an important requirement to extend network lifetime. This routing is done using the node...
—We consider the application of switch-and-stay transmit diversity (SSTD) to a three-node cooperative diversity system with decode-and-forward relaying. The basic idea of SSTD ge...
—With the ever increasing interest in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) cognitive radio (CR) systems, reducing the costs associated with RF-chains at the radio front end beco...
