IEEE 802.11 MAC, called the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), employs carrier sensing to effectively avoid collisions, but this makes it difficult to maximally reuse the sp...
— HADOF is a set of mechanisms to defend against routing disruptions in mobile ad hoc networks. Based on the observed behavior and the history record of each node, HADOF aims to ...
— In autonomous mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) where each user is its own authority, fully cooperative behaviors, such as unconditionally forwarding packets for each other or, ho...
Abstract— The ability of smart antennas to improve performance in a typically constrained ad-hoc network environment, has helped them garner significant attention over the last ...
—In this paper we introduce the notion of power management within the context of wireless ad-hoc networks. More specifically, we investigate the effects of using different trans...
