Abstract

Mechanism to mitigate signal interference in ultra wide band (UWB) networks based on spatial reuse of the signal spectrum. Efficient media access control (MAC) in wireless networks is challenging because wireless devices may be affected by signal interference during spatial multiplexing. Wireless ad-hop (multi-hop) networks exploit the limited system bandwidth available via spatial reuse to enhance aggregate throughput. Spatial reuse allows concurrent data exchanges, resulting in higher throughputs.
