In the literature, asymptotic studies of multi-hop wireless network capacity often consider only centralized and deterministic TDMA (time-division multi-access) coordination schemes. There have been fewer studies of the asymptotic capacity…

Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) based distributed algorithms can attain the largest capacity region as the centralized Max-Weight policy does. Despite their capability of achieving throughput-optimality, these algorithms can either…

It was shown recently that CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)-like distributed algorithms can achieve the maximal throughput in wireless networks (and task processing networks) under certain assumptions. One important, but idealized…

Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) protocols have been shown to reach the full capacity region for data communication in wireless networks, with polynomial complexity. However, current literature achieves the throughput optimality with an…

In this paper, we consider CSMA policies for scheduling of multihop wireless networks with one-hop traffic. The main contribution of this paper is to propose Unlocking CSMA (U-CSMA) policy that enables to obtain high throughput with low…

We develop a new metric for quantifying end-to-end throughput in multihop wireless networks, which we term random access transport capacity, since the interference model presumes uncoordinated transmissions. The metric quantifies the…

Recently, low-complexity and distributed Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA)-based scheduling algorithms have attracted extensive interest due to their throughput-optimal characteristics in general network topologies. However, these…

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access), which resolves contentions over wireless networks in a fully distributed fashion, has recently gained a lot of attentions since it has been proved that appropriate control of CSMA parameters guarantees…

We analyze the performance of CSMA in multi-channel wireless networks, accounting for the random nature of traffic. Specifically, we assess the ability of CSMA to fully utilize the radio resources and in turn to stabilize the network in a…

This paper develops a distributed algorithm for rate allocation in wireless networks that achieves the same throughput region as optimal centralized algorithms. This cross-layer algorithm jointly performs medium access control (MAC) and…

Radio resource sharing mechanisms are key to ensuring good performance in wireless networks. In their seminal paper \cite{tassiulas1}, Tassiulas and Ephremides introduced the Maximum Weighted Scheduling algorithm, and proved its…

This paper studies a combined space partitioning and network flow optimization problem, with applications to large-scale power, transportation, or communication systems. In dense wireless networks, one may want to simultaneously optimize…

We consider a wireless network where each flow (instead of each link) runs its own CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access) algorithm. Specifically, each flow attempts to access the radio channel after some random time and transmits a packet if…

This paper provides proofs of the rate stability, Harris recurrence, and epsilon-optimality of CSMA algorithms where the backoff parameter of each node is based on its backlog. These algorithms require only local information and are easy to…

Franceschetti et al. have recently shown that per-node throughput in an extended, ad hoc wireless network with $\Theta(n)$ randomly distributed nodes and multihop routing can be increased from the $\Omega({1 \over \sqrt{n} \log n})$ scaling…

Code-division multiple-access (CDMA) has the potential to support traffic sources with a wide range of quality of service (QoS) requirements. The traffic carrying capacity of CDMA channels under QoS constraints (such as delay guarantee) is,…

This paper studies how to achieve the maximal link throughputs in a CSMA wireless network through offered-load control. First, we propose an analytical model, contention-graph-combination (CGC), to describe the relationship between the…

We analytically study a carrier sense multiple access (CSMA)-based network. In the network, the nodes have their own average throughput demands for transmission to a common base station. The CSMA is based on the request-to-send…

This thesis focuses on link scheduling in wireless mesh networks by taking into account physical layer characteristics. The assumption made throughout is that a packet is received successfully only if the Signal to Interference and Noise…

We address the optimization of the sum rate performance in multicell interference-limited singlehop networks where access points are allowed to cooperate in terms of joint resource allocation. The resource allocation policies considered…
