    • MAC Design for Analog Network Coding 

      Khabbazian, Majid; Kuhn, Fabian; Lynch, Nancy Ann; Medard, Muriel; Parandehgheibi, Ali (Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2011-06)
      Most medium access control (MAC) mechanisms discard collided packets and consider interference harmful. Recent work on Analog Network Coding (ANC) suggests a different approach, in which multiple interfering transmissions ...
    • Decomposing broadcast algorithms using abstract mac layers 

      Khabbazian, Majid; Kowalski, Dariusz R.; Kuhn, Fabian; Lynch, Nancy Ann (Association for Computing Machinery, 2010-09)
      In much of the theoretical literature on wireless algorithms, issues of message dissemination are considered together with issues of contention management. This combination leads to complicated algorithms and analysis, ...
    • The abstract MAC layer 

      Kuhn, Fabian; Lynch, Nancy Ann; Newport, Calvin Charles (Association for Computing Machinery, 2009-09)
      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 ...
