Medium Access Control in Impulse-Based Ultra Wideband Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks

Medium Access Control in Impulse-Based Ultra Wideband Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks

This thesis investigates distributed medium access control (MAC) protocols custom tailored to both impulse-based ultra wideband (I-UWB) radios and to large ad hoc and sensor networks. I-UWB is an attractive radio technology for large ad hoc and sensor networks due to its robustness to multipath fadi...
