This paper proposes a new principle for designing MAC protocols for spread spectrum based ad hoc networks ? inducing spatial clustering in contending transmitters/receivers. We fi...
This paper investigates two fundamental characteristics of a wireless multihop network: its minimum node degree and its k?connectivity. Both topology attributes depend on the spat...
Nodes in sensor networks often encounter spatially-correlated contention, where multiple nodes in the same neighborhood all sense an event they need to transmit information about....
Transmission power control (TPC) has a great potential to increase the throughput of a mobile ad hoc network (MANET). Existing TPC schemes achieve this goal by using additional ha...
The efficiency of a communication network depends not only on its control protocols, but also on its topology. We propose a distributed topology management algorithm that construc...
