Mobile ad-hoc networking works properly only if the par- ticipating nodes cooperate in routing and forwarding. How- ever, it may be advantageous for individual nodes not to cooperate. We propose a protocol, called CONFIDANT, for making misbehavior unattrac ...
Ad-hoc networks are a key in the evolution of wireless networks. Ad-hoc networks are typically composed of equal nodes, which communicate over wireless links without any central control. Ad-hoc wireless networks inherit the traditional problems of wireless ...
There is an important trend toward personal mobile communications. People use more and more handheld devices to keep in touch with friends or business partners. One possible way to connect these devices is provided by wireless radio technologies. The emerg ...
Applications running on a mobile wireless device most be able to adapt gracefully to limited and fluctuating network resources. When multiple applications run on the same device, control over bandwidth scheduling becomes fundamental in order to coordinate ...
In this paper we consider the problem of node positioning in ad-hoc networks. We propose a distributed, infrastructure-free positioning algorithm that does not rely on Global Positioning System (GPS). The algorithm uses the distances between the nodes to b ...
In this paper we present the main challenges in mobile ad-hoc wide area networks (MAWANs). A MAWAN is a wide area, large, (potentially) entirely wireless networks. We describe the Terminodes Project (a 10-year-long research program (2000-2010) in MAWANs, s ...
In mobile ad hoc networks, it is usually assumed that all the nodes belong to the same authority; therefore, they are expected to cooperate in order to support the basic functions of the network such as routing. In this paper, we consider the case in which ...

It is well-known that multiple transmit and receiving antennas can significantly improve the performance of wireless networks. The design of good modulation schemes for the model of multiple antenna wireless transmission in a fast fading environment (e.g., ...
