Ad-hoc networks are a key in the evolution of wireless networks. Ad-hoc networks are typically composed of equal nodes, which communicate over wireless links without any central control. Ad-hoc wireless networks inherit the traditional problems of wireless and mobile communications, such as bandwidth optimisation, power control and transmission quality enhancement. In addition, the multi-hop na...

In this chapter, the IEEE 802.15.4 MAC layer is modeled using a per-node Markov chain model. Using this model, expressions for various performance metrics including delay , throughput, power consumption, and efficiency, are derived and such expressions are subsequently validated against the corresponding values obtained via simulation. The simplifying assumptions required by the Markov-chain an...
