Due to the broadcast nature of radio propagation, the wireless air interface is open and
accessible to both authorized and illegitimate users. This completely differs from a wired …

Recently, technologies related to Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) are growing rapidly
particularly sensors, networking, and processing technologies. Accordingly, governments …

One of the most important design problems for multi-UAV (Unmanned Air Vehicle) systems
is the communication which is crucial for cooperation and collaboration between the UAVs. If …

The Internet has become essential to all aspects of modern life, and thus the consequences
of network disruption have become increasingly severe. It is widely recognised that the …

Time-critical and delay-sensitive multimedia applications require more spectrum and
transmission resources. With the provision of cognitive radios (CRs), the underutilized …

The strict boundary of the five layers in the TCP/IP network model provides the information
encapsulation that enables the standardizing of network communications and makes the …

Similar to radio-frequency-based wireless networks (RWNs) used in terrestrial
environments, the medium access control (MAC) protocol is a key element for underwater …

Latency is increasingly becoming a performance bottleneck for Internet Protocol (IP)
networks, but historically, networks have been designed with aims of maximizing throughput …

This chapter presents the practical application of low‐cost printed‐circuit frequency‐
scanning antennas for efficient wireless networks with smart functionalities. The design …

By deploying additional low power nodes (LPNs) within the coverage area of traditional high
power nodes (HPNs) and bringing them closer to users, underlay heterogeneous networks …
