TLDR
The article considers the network layer by discussing extensions that are being made to the widely used Internet protocol (IP) to deal with mobility (wired or wireless) and speculating on future directions for wireless LAN systems.Abstract:Â
The emerging widespread use of wireless LAN systems together with the users' desire for such systems to interoperate has created a requirement for standards. Many standards bodies are currently defining standards for wireless systems that relate to different layers of the networking protocol stack. Of these, two influential physical and data link layer standards, IEEE 802.11 and the European HIPERLAN, are described. The article then considers the network layer by discussing extensions that are being made to the widely used Internet protocol (IP) to deal with mobility (wired or wireless). The final standards that are discussed relate to wireless link management. The article concludes by speculating on future directions for wireless LAN systems.read more

Adaptive media control
Aura Ganz,Zvi Ganz,Kim Ilwhan +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a media control approach that supports transmission of data streams with QoS requirements, such as minimum throughput or maximum delay, while adapting to the changing characteristics of the transmission medium.

Empirical characterization of wideband indoor radio channel at 5.3 GHz
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defined the characteristics of wideband indoor radio channel at 5.3 GHz based on an extensive measurement campaign using a wideband channel sounder with 19 ns delay resolution.

Investigation of the IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) sublayer functions
TL;DR: The results show that the IEEE 802.11 WLAN can achieve a reasonably high efficiency when the medium is almost error-free, but may degrade appreciably under harsh fading, and that time-sensitive traffic can be supported together with other intensive traffic such as packet data.

QoS in IEEE 802.11-based wireless networks: A contemporary review
TL;DR: This survey discusses the QoS features incorporated by the IEEE 802.11 standard at both physical (PHY) and Media Access Control (MAC) layers, as well as other higher-layer proposals, and focuses on how the new architectural developments of software-defined networking (SDN) and cloud networking can be used to facilitate QoS provisioning in IEEE802.11-based networks.

The Theory of Error-Correcting Codes
TL;DR: This book presents an introduction to BCH Codes and Finite Fields, and methods for Combining Codes, and discusses self-dual Codes and Invariant Theory, as well as nonlinear Codes, Hadamard Matrices, Designs and the Golay Code.

Highly dynamic Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector routing (DSDV) for mobile computers
TL;DR: The modifications address some of the previous objections to the use of Bellman-Ford, related to the poor looping properties of such algorithms in the face of broken links and the resulting time dependent nature of the interconnection topology describing the links between the Mobile hosts.
IP Mobility Support
TL;DR: This document specifies protocol enhancements that allow transparent routing of IP datagrams to mobile nodes in the Internet.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
TL;DR: Due to some errors introduced into RFC 1531 in the editorial process, this memo is reissued as RFC 1541.

Mobility support in IPv6
TL;DR: This document specifies Mobile IPv6, a protocol which allows nodes to remain reachable while moving around in the IPv6 Internet, and defines a new IPv6 protocol and a new destination option.
