The performance of medium access control (MAC) depends on both spatial locations and
traffic patterns of wireless agents. In contrast to conventional MAC policies, we propose a …

In this paper, we study the multichannel exposed terminal problem in multihop wireless
networks. We propose a multichannel medium access control (MAC) protocol, called …

Cognitive MAC protocols are designed to efficiently utilize the scarce spectral resources
without affecting the performance characteristics of primary users. The use of spectrum …

We address the problem of link quality estimation in wireless networks and propose a
distributed online protocol based on supervised incremental learning. We first identify a set …

A novel low power medium access protocol energy efficient MAC (EE-MAC) for wireless
