Some impulse radio UWB (IR-UWB) networks may allow concurrent transmissions without power control (for example MAC protocols that do not use power control, or co-existing, non-coordinated piconets). In such cases, it has been proposed to mitigate multi-use ...

This paper describes an event dissemination algorithm that implements a topic-based publish/subscribe interaction abstraction in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). Our algorithm is frugal in two senses. First, it reduces the total number of duplicates and pa ...
A hybrid ad hoc network is a structure-based network that is extended using multi-hop communications. Indeed, in this kind of network, the existence of a communication link between the mobile station and the base station is not required: A mobile station t ...

We present an architecture for implementing a wireless physical layer in a packet-based network simulator. We have integrated this architecture in the popular ns-2 network simulator and used it to implement an impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) physica ...

We are interested in the design of a MAC layer for systems that use ultra-wide band (UWB) communication and transmit very little power. We first explore the design space and find, that, for such networks, the optimal MAC should allow concurrent transmissio ...

This paper reports on our experience with the implementation, deployment, and operation of SensorScope, an indoor environmental monitoring network. Nodes run on standard TinyOS components and use B-MAC for the MAC layer implementation. The main component o ...

Mobility in ad hoc networks causes frequent link failures, which in turn causes packet losses. TCP attributes these packet losses to congestion. This incorrect inference results in frequent TCP re-transmission time-outs and therefore a degradation in TCP p ...
It is noticeable that our society is increasingly relying on computer systems. Nowadays, computer networks can be found at places where it would have been unthinkable a few decades ago, supporting in some cases critical applications on which human lives ma ...
We consider the design of the MAC layer for low power, low data-rate, impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) networks. In such networks, the primary concern is energy consumption rather than rate efficiency. We explore several dimensions such as power cont ...
