PEDAMACS is a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) scheme that extends the common single hop TDMA to a multihop sensor network, using a high-powered access point to synchronize the nodes and to schedule their transmissions and receptions. The protocol first enables the access point to gather topology (connectivity) in…

The fifth generation (5G) of cellular networks is starting to be defined to meet the wireless connectivity demands for 2020 and beyond. One area that is considered increasingly important is the capability to provide ultra-reliable and low-latency communication, to enable e.g., new mission-critical machine-type communi…

In diffusion-based molecular communication, information transport is governed by diffusion through a fluid medium. The achievable data rates for these channels are very low compared to the radio-based communication system, since diffusion can be a slow process. To improve the data rate, a novel multiple-input multiple…
