In this paper, we introduce a novel medium access control (MAC) protocol for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems. This protocol exploits the Markov Chain Model of Slotted...
For a dense RFID reader deployment, such as in a warehouse, where hundreds of readers will be positioned in a building, the interference between all these readers must be studied c...

Recent FCC proceedings have considered the notion of unlicensed device operation in licensed bands. Licensed users are concerned about harmful interference while unlicensed device ...
Wireless sensor networks are widely adopted in many location-sensitive applications including disaster management, environmental monitoring, military applications where the precise...
Logistics has grown dramatically, especially where identifying, locating, or tracking objects in ports are important, because ports are gateways to extended markets. In this paper,...
Decentralized sensor networks are collections of individual local sensors that observe a common phenomenon, quantize their observations, and send this quantized information to a ce...
Abstract-- Creating high quality network trace files is a difficult task to accomplish on a limited budget. High network speeds may overburden an individual system running packet l...
