Analogue network coding‐aided game theoretic medium access control protocol for energy‐efficient data dissemination

A Game-Theoretic Model for Medium Access Control

In this paper, a game-theoretic model for contention based medium access control (contention control) is proposed. We define a general game-theoretic model, called random access game, to capture the distributed nature of contention control and the interaction among wireless nodes with contention-based medium access. We study the design of random access games, characterize their equilibria, stud...

Traffic Priority-Aware Adaptive Slot Allocation for Medium Access Control Protocol in Wireless Body Area Network

Biomedical sensors (BMSs) monitor the heterogeneous vital signs of patients. They have diverse Quality of Service (QoS) requirements including reduced collision, delay, loss, and energy consumption in the transmission of data, which are non-constrained, delay-constrained, reliability-constrained, and critical. In this context, this paper proposes a traffic priority-aware adaptive slot allocatio...

A Cloud-Assisted Random Linear Network Coding Medium Access Control Protocol for Healthcare Applications

Relay sensor networks are often employed in end-to-end healthcare applications to facilitate the information flow between patient worn sensors and the medical data center. Medium access control (MAC) protocols, based on random linear network coding (RLNC), are a novel and suitable approach to efficiently handle data dissemination. However, several challenges arise, such as additional delays int...
