Abstract—In Chebyshev finite-impulse response (FIR) equalization, we design an FIR filter that minimizes the Chebyshev equalization error, i.e., the maximum absolute deviation ...
— We propose a new cooperation protocol for the fading multiple-access channel called space-division relay (SDR). It is similar to the protocol of Laneman, Tse and Wornell (LTW) ...
— Aggressive physical carrier sensing (PCS), which improves the spatial reuse efficiency by shrinking the PCS range, is a promising technique to scale high density Wireless Loca...
Abstract—Directional antennas are expected to provide significant improvements over omni-directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks. Directional MAC protocols, however, int...
—Location information should be verifiable in order to support new computing and information services. In this paper, we adapt the classical challenge-response method for authen...
— Link and node reliability are important metrics in wireless ad hoc networks. Therefore, evaluating and quantifying reliability has become the cornerstone of research in this ...
— A novel cooperative multiple access protocol for packet speech communications is proposed. Cooperation is achieved through a relay node and by exploiting the silence periods du...

— 1 Wireless mesh networks are deployed as broadband backbones to provide ubiquitous wireless access for residents and local businesses. Utilizing multiple channels has the poten...
— Given a wireless sensor network (WSN) whose sensors are randomly and independently distributed in a bounded area following a homogeneous Poisson process with density ρ and eac...
— 1 Taking advantage of the independent fading channel conditions among multiple wireless users, opportunistic transmissions schedule the user with the instantaneously best condi...
