The emergence of lightweight wireless mobile de-vices, like laptops, PDAs, and sensors
makes mo-bile ad hoc networks (MANETs) an exciting and important research area in recent …

In this paper we propose a comparison between different MAC protocols for wireless ad-hoc
networks. Specifically we consider a well-known protocol adopted at the MAC layer, that is …

Since the original work of Grossglauser and Tse, which showed that mobility can increase
the capacity of an ad hoc network, there has been a lot of interest in characterizing the delay …

Backbone wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are emerging alternatives to conventional wired
backbones for metropolitan and have attracted much attention from both academic and …

In traditional ad hoc networks, the hidden-terminal and the exposed-terminal problems can
reduce the network capacity severely on the MAC layer. To address the problem, many MAC …

(in English) The influence of the throughput reduction caused by Hidden Terminal Problem
becomes low by the use of CSMA/CA and DCF which are used as MAC protocol in the ad …

ABSTRACT MAC layer protocol which is a sub layer of data link layer has become an
interesting research topic in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET). Being affected by the …

The benefits of using multiple antennas in wireless communications have been known for
some time [1–3]. In particular, Foschini [3] showed that the use of multiple antennas at both …

In this paper a new MAC protocol called FAMAC is proposed. This protocol has been
designed keeping in view the impact of both small scale and large scale fading …
