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 …

The channel coherence time in indoor WLANs normally exceeds multiple frame
transmission times. In light of this, we propose a new rate adaptation scheme, termed as the …

Wireless link layer multicast is an important service primitive for emerging applications, such
as live video, streaming audio, and other content telecasts. The broadcast nature of the …

We propose a routing metric for enabling high-throughput reliable multicast in multi-rate
wireless mesh networks. This new multicast routing metric, called expected multicast …

One of the key challenges in designing a rate adaptation scheme for IEEE 802.11 wireless
LANs (WLANs) is to differentiate bit errors from link-layer collisions. Many recent rate …

Rate control methodologies that are currently available in IEEE 802.11 network cards
seriously underutilize network resources and, in addition, per-second throughputs suffer …

Devices in wireless mesh networks can operate on multiple channels (MC) and
automatically adjust their transmission rates for the occupied channels. This paper shows …

IEEE 802.11 wireless network supports multiple link rates at the physical layer. Each link
rate is associated with a certain required Signal-to-Interference-and-Noise Ratio (SINR) …

Rate adaptation algorithms play a crucial role in IEEE 802.11 WLANs. While the network
performance depends greatly on the rate adaptation algorithms, the detailed implementation …

Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) have been widely developed during this decade,
due to their mobility and exibility. During this period, IEEE 802.11 has become the dominant …
