As wireless devices boom and bandwidth-hungry applications (eg, video and cloud
uploading) get popular, today's wireless local area networks (WLANs) become not only …

In the next generation wireless networks, more applications will emerge, covering virtual
reality movies, augmented reality, holographic three-dimensional telepresence, haptic …

This paper proposes a semi-random backoff (SRB) method that enables resource
reservation in contention-based wireless LANs. The proposed SRB is fundamentally …

This paper presents a novel approach to medium access control for single-hop wireless
sensor networks. The ALOHA-Q protocol applies Q-Learning to frame based ALOHA as an …

Collisions are a main cause of throughput degradation in wireless local area networks. The
current contention mechanism used in the IEEE 802.11 networks is called carrier sense …

Wi-Fi devices operate following the 802.11 distributed coordination function in order to fairly
use the channel that the devices share. However, the throughput performance of the Wi-Fi …

In this paper a candidate protocol to replace the prevalent CSMA/CA medium access control
in Wireless Local Area Networks is presented. The proposed protocol can achieve higher …

We show that several important resource allocation problems in wireless networks fit within
the common framework of constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). Inspired by the …

The ability to perform traffic differentiation is a promising feature of the current Medium
Access Control (MAC) in Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). The Enhanced Distributed …

Bluetooth low energy (BLE) is one of most promising technologies to enable the Internet-
ofThings (IoT) paradigm. The BLE neighbor discovery process (NDP) based on active …
