In multihop wireless ad-hoc networks, the medium access control (MAC) protocol plays a
key role in coordinating the access to the shared medium among wireless nodes. Currently …

In typical wireless networks, multihop communication is a method used to establish
connectivity between distant nodes. Adapting this technique to vehicular networks requires …

In a vehicular network where roadside units (RSUs) are deprived from a permanent grid-
power connection, vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications are disrupted once the …

In cognitive Ad Hoc networks (CAHN), because the contentions and mutual interferences
among secondary nodes are inevitable as well as secondary nodes usually have limited …

This book quantifies the key factors of WLAN performance and describes methods for
improvement. It provides theoretical background and empirical results for the optimum …

The transmit power control schemes allow the wireless nodes to select a minimum required
transmit power from all available power levels to access the medium. In this paper, we focus …

The remarkable evolution of wireless networks into the next generation to provide ubiquitous
and seamless broadband applications has recently triggered the emergence of Wireless …

Carrier sensing schemes have been recognized as a key knob for improving network
performance. The distributed coordination function (DCF) and its modifications focus on the …

This paper revolves around the evaluation of the achievable throughput in the context of an
IEEE 802.11 p-based vehicular subnetwork scenario where a completely isolated source …

Modern Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs) employ communication technologies in
