We consider the offline version of the routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) problem in transparent all-optical networks. In such networks and in the absence of regenerators, the...
Abstract--Arbitration and scheduling of multiple tags in stateof-the-art Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems is accomplished on the medium access control layer. Currently...
In this paper, we investigate the low coverage problem of efficient broadcast protocols in wireless ad hoc networks with realistic physical layer models. To minimize energy consum...
Abstract--This paper addresses the fairness of Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols that are capable of handling interference on the physical layer to a varying extent. The variat...

Abstract. Mobile network operators demand small base station antennas and high physical layer throughputs. In the downlink, high physical layer throughputs can be achieved by explo...
—In this paper, we explore physical layer cooperative communication in order to design network layer routing algorithms that are energy efficient. We assume each node in the net...
Abstract—Security is an important aspect for the future wireless networks. Since the number of network nodes increases constantly, and, in addition, the networks are decentralize...
Abstract— In conventional wireless systems with layered architectures, the physical layer treats all data streams from upper layers equally and apply the same modulation and codi...
—Neighbor discovery is essential for the process of self-organization of a wireless network, where almost all routing and medium access protocols need knowledge of one-hop neighb...

We consider transmitting a source across a pair of independent, nonergodic channels with random states (e.g., slow-fading channels) so as to minimize the average distortion. The ge...
