Abstract— In this paper, we address the problem of providing traffic quality of service and energy efficiency in ad hoc wireless networks. We consider a network that is shared ...
Abstract--Two well-known problems that can cause performance degradations in IEEE 802.11 wireless networks are the exposednode (EN) and hidden-node (HN) problems. Although there ha...
This paper presents ARC (Adaptive Range Control), a communication range control mechanism using directional antennas to be implemented across multiple layers. ARC uses directional...
Sensor networks are fundamentally constrained by the difficulty and energy expense of delivering information from sensors to sink. Our work has focused on garnering additional si...
Mutual network synchronization is a distributed method in which geographically separated clocks align their times to one another without the need of reference or master clocks. Mut...
