Conference Proceeding
Mirza, N., Taylor, H., Abdelshafy, M., King, P., Romdhani, I., & Alghamdi, A. (2018). Cross-Layer Multipath Multichannel MAC protocol for MANETs. In Proceedings of the International Symposium on Networks, Computers and Communications (ISNCC). https://doi.org/10.1109/ISNCC.2018.8530886

Utilising multiple disjoint paths in multiple channels can improve network performance by enabling a node to reroute data along discovered paths seamlessly when link failure is detected. However, depending on a stale route to recover from a broken li... Read More about Cross-Layer Multipath Multichannel MAC protocol for MANETs.
