We consider the case of sparse mobile sensors deployed to implement missions in challenging environments. This paper explores a notion of tour networks that is well suited to circ...
The basic idea presented in this paper is to use interference aware routing with predicted interference. Noise and other values are measured over a long time and within a wide are...
Random Walks (RWs) have been considered for information dissemination in large scale, dynamic and unstructured environments, as they are scalable, robust to topology changes and d...
—In this paper, the problem of estimating the link quality in mesh networks has been considered. Such a process is a major task to develop an efficient network layer, since it a...
It has been shown that IEEE 802.11 DCF medium access control (MAC) protocol may not be suitable for multihop wireless networks due to its relatively low throughput and severely un...
The anticipated deployment of IEEE 802.16-based wireless metropolitan area networks (WMANs) will usher a new era in broadband wireless communications. The adoption of the WiMAX te...
