Wireless networks are passing through a transition phase for the past few years now and
this transition is giving a way towards the convergence of all IP-based networks to form the …

The goal of the network mobility management is to effectively reduce the complexity of
handoff procedure and keep mobile devices connecting to the Internet. When users are …

This paper addresses the problem of access point (AP) selection in large Wi-Fi networks.
Unlike current solutions that rely on received signal strength to determine the best AP that …

Cognitive radio technique is the next step toward efficient wireless bandwidth utilization.
While some of the spectrum bands (unlicensed band) have been increasingly used, most of …

This work introduces an innovative Access Point (AP) allocation algorithm for dense Wi-Fi
networks, which relies on a centralised potential game developed in a Software-Defined …

Cooperative diversity has emerged as a promising technique to facilitate fast handoff
mechanisms in mobile ad-hoc environments. The key concept behind a prominent …

This paper explores a practical approach to securing large wireless networks by applying
Physical Layer Security (PLS). To date, PLS has mostly been seen as an information theory …

Vehicular ad hoc networks represent one of the most important applications of wireless ad
hoc networks. In highways, where different networks exist, frequent and sometimes …

Abstract The Distributed Queuing with Collision Avoidance (DQCA) Medium Access Control
(MAC) protocol has been presented in the literature as a high-performance protocol for …

The design of the seamless handoff is the key issue in the next‐generation mobile networks.
A new broadband wireless access, called WiMAX, has been specified in the IEEE 802.16 e …
