The Abstract MAC Layer
(2010-08-26)A diversity of possible communication assumptions complicates the study of algorithms and lower bounds for radio networks. We address this problem by defining an abstract MAC layer. This service provides reliable local ... -
MAC Design for Analog Network Coding
(2010-08-02)Most medium access control mechanisms discard collided packets and consider interference harmful. Recent work on Analog Network Coding (ANC) suggests a different approach, in which multiple interfering transmissions are ... -
Broadcasting in Unreliable Radio Networks
(2010-06-08)Practitioners agree that unreliable links, which fluctuate between working and not working, are an important characteristic of wireless networks. In contrast, most theoretical models of radio networks fix a static set of ...
