A novel dual channel MAC protocol for IEEE802.11 ad-hoc networks

In this paper, we propose a link-directionality-based dual channel MAC protocol in an attempt to double the capacities of networks using the single-channel 802.11 protocol. Simulations show that the proposed scheme can achieve more than 78% of our targeted capacities. We believe this is a first pape...
