—We study a cognitive network consisting of multiple cognitive users communicating in the presence of a single primary user. The primary user is located at the center of the netw...
Recently, several MAC protocols using directional antennas have been proposed for ad hoc networks, which are mainly evaluated by computer simulations. This paper develops a MAC pr...
Relay-based cooperative communications can achieve spatial diversity gains, enhance coverage and potentially increase capacity. If considered for large networks, traditional relayi...
—Previous work demonstrated that the improvements in spectral efficiency and link reliability can be obtained in wireless relay networks employing terminals with MIMO capability...
Abstract— We consider two-hop communication of a delaysensitive, memoryless Gaussian source over two independent paths in an ad-hoc network. To capture the behavior an ad-hoc net...
