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...
Ensuring the consistency and the availability of replicated data in highly mobile ad hoc networks is a challenging task because of the lack of a backbone infrastructure. Previous ...
Abstract--The concept of cognitive radio (or secondary spectrum access) is currently under investigation as a promising paradigm to achieve efficient use of the frequency resource ...
