Abstract There exist accurate calculation methods for estimation of interference power sum statistics in fixedtopology wireless networks based on the log-normal shadowing radio mod...
It has been shown in the literature that many MAC protocols for wireless networks have a considerable control overhead, which limits their achievable throughput and delay performan...

Token passing medium access control (MAC) protocols are gaining interest amongst wireless ad hoc network researchers as they provide unrivalled advantages over the existing IEEE 80...
We propose the cross-layer based opportunistic multi-channel medium access control (MAC) protocols, which integrate the spectrum sensing at physical (PHY) layer with the packet sch...
: In this paper, we discuss a novel reservation-based, asynchronous MAC protocol called `Multi-rate Multi-hop MAC Protocol' (MMMP) for multi-hop ad hoc networks that provides ...
Ultra wideband (UWB) technology based primarily on the impulse radio paradigm has a huge potential for revolutionizing the world of digital communications especially wireless comm...
Studies of ad hoc wireless networks are a relatively new field gaining more popularity for various new applications. In these networks, the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols a...
—Previously, we have developed a framework to perform systematic analysis of CSMA/CA based wireless MAC protocols. The framework first identifies protocol states that meet our ...
We present a joint PHY/MAC architecture (DCC-MAC) for 802.15.4a-like networks based on PPM-UWB. Unlike traditional approaches it fully utilizes the specific nature of UWB to achie...
