Multi-hop extension is fulfilled by constructing child or neighbor piconets in IEEE 802.15. 3
standard. This approach does not consider the multi-channel capability in the physical layer …

Because of the short-range characteristics of UWB or 802.15. 3 networks (around 10 m), it is
highly desirable to have a range extension technology for future wireless personal area …

This paper describes a framework for establishment of UWB multi-hop ad hoc networks to
improve the efficiency of standard-based multi-hop extension by constructing child or …

Currently there are two competing proposals for Ultra-WideBand (UWB): one is DS-UWB
based on IEEE 802.15. 3 MAC and the other is Multi-Band OFDM Alliance (MBOA). Because …

Multiband-OFDM (MB-OFDM) is one of the promising candidates for UWB-based alternative
PHY layer for WPAN. However, the coverage radius of MB-OFDM UWB system is very short …

Wireless personal area networks (WPANs) usually have very limited coverage. In this paper,
we focus on methods to extend this range through multi-hop communication crossing …

With its capability of supporting high data rate services in a short range, the ultra-wide band
(UWB) technology is appealing for future wireless personal area networks (WPANs) …

Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs) are used for a wide variety of applications.
Earlier WPANs, like Bluetooth, offer data rates only for low rate communication. Nowadays …

Some advantages of meshing Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN) are to increase the
network coverage without high transmission power, self-configuration and self-healing …

In this paper, we present a way to estimate the performance of successful requests in
contention access period (CAP) of IEEE 802.15. 3 accounting for dual carrier-orthogonal …
