Impact of Control Channel Design on Cooperative Spectrum Sensing in Opportunistic Spectrum Access Networks
"... Abstract—In Opportunistic Spectrum Access (OSA) networks, Secondary unlicensed Users (SUs) need a common Control Channel (CC) to identify the spectrum opportunities, i.e., com-mon spectrum holes unused by licensed Primary Users (PUs). Typically, an interference-free CC is unrealistically assumed in ..."

) nodes avoiding harmful interference to PUs. To this aim, we analyse the trade-off between the connectivity degree of a multi-hop underlay UWB signalling network, directly related to the possibility to perform cooperative sensing, and its coexistence with PUs. It is observed that the correct dimensioning
An Aloha protocol for multi-hop mobile wireless networks
- IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory
, 2006
"... Abstract—An Aloha-type access control mechanism for large mobile, multihop, wireless networks is defined and analyzed. This access scheme is designed for the multihop context, where it is important to find a compromise between the spatial density of communications and the range of each transmission. ..."

WiseMAC: An Ultra Low Power MAC Protocol for Multi-hop Wireless Sensor Networks.
- In Proceedings of the First International Workshop on Algorithmic Aspects of Wireless Sensor Networks (ALGOSENSORS 2004),
, 2004
"... Abstract. WiseMAC is a medium access control protocol designed for wireless sensor networks. This protocol is based on non-persistent CSMA and uses the preamble sampling technique to minimize the power consumed when listening to an idle medium. The novelty in this protocol consists in exploiting th ..."

It presents an ultralow power consumption in low traffic conditions and a high energy efficiency in high traffic conditions. The performance of the WiseMAC protocol is evaluated using simulations and mathematical analysis
Locating the Nodes -- Cooperative localization in wireless sensor networks
, 2005
"... Accurate and low-cost sensor localization is a critical requirement for the deployment of wireless sensor networks in a wide variety of applications. Low-power wireless sensors may be many hops away from any other sensors with a priori location information. In cooperative localization, sensors work ..."

Wideband and ultra-wideband (UWB) measurements, and RF and acoustic media are also discussed. Using the models, we show how to calculate a Cramér-Rao bound (CRB

-radio (MC-MR) technology. In this paper, we investigate the important problem of multi-hop networking with CR nodes. For such a network, each node has a pool of frequency bands (typically of unequal size) that can be used for communication. The potential difference in the bandwidth among the available
Why Max-min Fairness Is Not Suitable For Multi-Hop Wireless Networks
"... We consider the issue of which criteria to use when evaluating the design of a wireless multihop network. It is known, and we illustrate in this paper, that maximizing the total capacity, or transport capacity, leads to gross imbalance and is not suitable. An alternative, which is often used in netw ..."

in networking, is to consider the max-min fair allocation of rates, or of transport rates per node. We apply max-min fairness to the class of wireless, multihop networks for which the rate of a wireless link is an increasing functions of signal-to-noise ratio. This class includes CDMA and UWB. We show that
