Recent studies on directional Media Access Control (MAC) protocols using smart antennas for wireless ad hoc networks have shown that directional MAC protocols outperform traditiona...
— In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), the hidden and the exposed terminal problems affect the throughput of the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols. Several MAC schemes have be...
Token passing medium access control (MAC) protocols are gaining interest amongst wireless ad hoc network researchers as they provide unrivalled advantages over the existing IEEE 80...
— We investigate the spatial distribution of wireless nodes that can transport a given volume of traffic in a sensor network, while requiring the minimum number of wireless node...
Due to the shared medium nature of wireless networks, the uncertainties caused by collisions and interferences make the Quality of Service (QoS) issue harder than its wired counte...
