  • The Abstract MAC Layer 

    Unknown author (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 ...

  • One Video Stream to Serve Diverse Receivers 

    Unknown author (2008-10-18)
    The fundamental problem of wireless video multicast is to scalably serve multiple receivers which may have very different channel characteristics. Ideally, one would like to broadcast a single stream that allows each ...

  • Overcoming the Antennas-Per-Node Throughput Limit in MIMO LANs 

    Unknown author (2009-02-18)
    Today, the number of concurrent packets in a MIMO LAN is limited by the number of antennas on the AP. This paper shows how to overcome this limit. It presents a new design where multiple client-AP pairs can communicate ...

  • SoftCast: One Video to Serve All Wireless Receivers 

    Unknown author (2009-02-07)
    The main challenge in wireless video multicast is to scalably serve multiple receivers who have different channel characteristics. Current wireless transmission schemes, however, cannot support smooth degradation. Specifically, ...
