  • Abstract
    Aimed at higher reliability in broadcasting for ad hoc wireless networks, an innovative broadcasting scheme is developed and presented in this article. Featuring mini-slots at the MAC layer and directional antennas for NACK signal forwarding and transmission, the proposed scheme outperforms previous approaches in terms of packet loss recovery time, overhead, and throughput, as reported in the simulations
