Wireless local area network (WLAN) uses carrier sens multiple access with collision
avoidance (CSMA/CA) to share wireless medium. However, in dense WLAN environment, it …

Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) adopted in IEEE 802.11
WLAN suffers from serious problems of hidden terminal and exposed terminal. This will get …

Multiple overlapping transmissions cause a serious performance degradation in dense
wireless local area network (WLAN) due to increased level of interferences. The issue of …

This paper proposes an enhanced lightweight medium access control protocol. This protocol
combines schedule-based MAC mechanism and adaptive transmission power control …

In Wireless Local-Area Networks (WLANs), most of the wireless Access Points (APs) work at
the full power level. So, the conflicting channels may have a significant and inevitable impact …

Wireless local area networks (WLANs) have been globally deployed for years. Today, most
WLANs adopt IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function (DCF) for stations to share the …

In this paper we propose an enhanced Transmit Power Control (TPC) scheme and a new
fractional Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision A voidance (F-CSMA/CA) scheme for …

The explosive growth of the wireless network data brings a lot of pressure to the limited
network resources, the network energy saving problem is increasingly outstanding. Software …

Nowadays, software-defined networking (SDN) has attracted a lot of interest. Therefore,
many research works have introduced the new concepts and architecture to SDN-based …

Software-defined networking (SDN) along with transmission power control (TPC) have a
great potential in enabling efficient wireless networking. Power control aims at increasing …
