In contrast with conventional networks, mobile ad hoc networks usually do not provide on-line access to trusted authorities or to centralized servers and they exhibit frequent partitioning due to link and node failures and to node mobility. For these reaso ...
Simulation and emulation are popular means for evaluating wireless Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) protocols. Since MANETs are highly dependant on their physical environment, these techniques offer only a partial understanding of factors that may influence ...
In this paper we propose a new probabilistic Fair Exchange Protocol which requires no central Trusted Third Party. Instead, it relies on a virtually distributed and decentralized Trusted Third Party which is formalized as a Guardian Angel: a kind of Observ ...
We determine the capacity of a particular large Gaussian relay network in the limit as the number of relays tends to infinity. The upper bounds follow from a cut-set argument, and the lower bound follows from an argument involving uncoded transmission. We ...
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 ...
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., ...
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 ...
In mobile ad-hoc networks nodes need to cooperate to communicate, but there are many reasons for non-cooperation. Saving power or preventing other nodes from obstructing a service are merely selfish reasons for non-cooperation, whereas nodes may also activ ...
