In the near future, wireless sensor networks (WSN) performing sensing and communication tasks will be widely deployed as technology rapidly advances. Communication is one of the e...
— Due to the increased usage of NAT boxes and firewalls, it has become harder for applications to establish direct connections seamlessly among two end-hosts. A recently adopted...

—This paper reviews the characteristics of overlay networks and defines effective relay nodes that can improve the performance of interactive real-time applications. A heuristic ...
—In this paper, the problem of deploying relay nodes in wireless sensor networks will be considered. A system consisting of a set of sensor nodes communicating to a fusion center...
Abstract—Delay tolerant Ad-hoc Networks leverage the mobility of relay nodes to compensate for lack of permanent connectivity and thus enable communication between nodes that are...
— In this contribution, we propose a Distributed Turbo Trellis Coded Modulation (DTTCM) scheme for cooperative communications. The DTTCM scheme is designed based on its decoding ...
— In most wireless relay networks, the source and relay nodes transmit successively via fixed time division (FTD) and each relay forwards a packet immediately upon receiving. In...
— This paper presents a cooperative relay strategy with a game-theoretic perspective. In multi-hop networks, each node needs to send traffic via relay nodes, which behave indepe...
