In mobile ad hoc networks, node mobility causes links between nodes to break frequently, thus terminating the lifetime of the routes containing those links. An alternative route h...
— Providing delay guarantees to time-sensitive traffic in future wireless multimedia networks is a challenging issue. This is due to the time-varying link capacities and the vari...
Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) present quite large packet loss bursts due to mobility. In this work we propose two models based on hidden Markov models for estimating packet arri...
