A rate-adaptive MAC protocol for multi-Hop wireless networks

This paper presents a rate adaptive MAC protocol called the Receiver-Based AutoRate (RBAR) protocol, based on the RTS/CTS mechanism, which can be incorporated into many medium access control protocols including the widely popular IEEE 802.11 protocol.

Using directional antennas for medium access control in ad hoc networks

The design focuses on using multi-hop RTSs to establish links between distant nodes, and then transmit CTS, DATA and ACK over a single hop, and shows that the directional MAC protocol can perform better than IEEE 802.11, although the performance is dependent on the topology configuration and the flow patterns.

Analysis of TCP Performance over Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

A new metric, expected throughput, is introduced for the comparison of throughput in multi-hop networks, and this metric is used to show how the use of explicit link failure notification (ELFN) techniques can significantly improve TCP performance.

Medium access control protocols using directional antennas in ad hoc networks

This paper attempts to design new MAC protocols suitable for ad hoc networks based on directional antennas, such as the IEEE 802.11 standard, which do not benefit when using directional antennas because they have been designed for omnidirectional antennas.

Routing and link-layer protocols for multi-channel multi-interface ad hoc wireless networks

A link layer protocol to manage multiple channels is proposed, and it can be implemented over existing IEEE 802.11 hardware and a new routing metric for multi-channel multi-interface networks is incorporated into an on-demand routing protocol that operates over the link layer Protocol.

Distributed fair scheduling in a wireless LAN

Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is able to schedule transmissions such that the bandwidth allocated to different flows is proportional to their weights.

A Power Control MAC Protocol for Ad Hoc Networks

This paper presents an improved power control MAC protocol which does not degrade throughput and yields energy saving, and shows that this scheme can degrade network throughput and can result in higher energy consumption than using IEEE 802.11 without power control.
