—Several contention-based Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols have been proposed for the vehicles to gain the radio channels to distribute active safety messages timely, e.g., ...
The IEEE 802.11 standard for medium access control in wireless local area networks has been adopted as the de-facto medium access control standard in multi-hop wireless networks. I...
Wireless sensor networks consist of sensor nodes which are expected to be battery-powered and are hard to replace or recharge. Thus, reducing the energy consumption of sensor nodes...
Abstract—In this paper, we analyze three opportunistic multichannel MAC protocols that associate a newcoming terminal station to one of the access points available within its tra...
Abstract— In wireless sensor networks, one of the big challenges is to achieve a satisfactory network lifetime while meeting quality of service (QoS) requirements. In this paper,...
