Network capacity investigation has been intensive in the past couple of decades. A big
chunk of work exploring the capacity of wireless networks has appeared in the literature …

A directional antenna can bring benefits in terms of power consumption, spatial reuse, etc.
To exploit the advantage of directional antennas and improve the transmission throughput …

This paper analyzes the problem of modeling the collisions in a distributed and
heterogeneous fixed wireless network in which spatial reuse enables multi-packet …

The aggregate capacity of a wireless mesh network (WMN) is severely affected by interflow
interference. In this paper, we propose a network architecture that incorporates directional …

Capacity of wireless mesh networks can be enhanced through the use of smart directional
antennas, which not only enable nodes to have high quality links but also increase network …

Interference between nodes is a critical impairment in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs).
This paper studies the role of multiple antennas in mitigating such interference. Specifically …

In this paper, a dynamic cooperative MAC protocol (DDC-MAC) based on cluster network
topology is proposed, which has the capability of differentiated service mechanisms and …

Throughput scaling law of a large wireless network equipping directional antennas at each
node is analyzed based on the information-theoretic approach. More specifically, this paper …

In order to accelerate the information sharing, all-to-all broadcast needs more users to take
part in the packet transmission at the same time. Directional antennas, which are capable of …

The increasing demand for gigabit-per-second speeds and higher wireless node density is
driving the need for spatial reuse and the utilization of higher frequencies above the legacy …
