In this paper we develop a performance modeling technique for analyzing the time varying
performance of mobile ad hoc networks. Our approach is a novel hybrid of discrete event …

The available two-hop relay protocols with out-of-order or strictly in-order reception cannot
provide a flexible control for the packet delivery delay, which may significantly limit their …

In this letter, an enhancement to the prediction-based link availability estimation originally
proposed by the author, DJ He, and JQ Rao is discussed. This enhancement consists of the …

To date, most analysis of WLANs has been focused on their operation under saturation
condition. This work is an attempt to understand the fundamental performance of WLANs …

Abstract iCAR is a new wireless system architecture based on the integration of cellular and
modern ad hoc relaying technologies. It addresses the congestion problem due to limited …

In this paper we present a mobility model for ad hoc networks operating in mission critical
situations, like for example natural or man-made disasters, military activities or emergency …

Characterizing the performance of ad hoc networks is one of the most intricate open
challenges; conventional ideas based on information-theoretic techniques and inequalities …

One of the most important issues for mobile ad hoc networks is to know the availability of the
system. In this paper we propose a generalized connection availability model based on real …

An analytical framework is developed to study the throughput and routing overhead for
proactive and reactive routing strategies in random access mobile ad hoc networks. To …
