Directional MAC Protocols in Ad-Hoc Networks
In wireless ad-hoc networks, the beam forming antenna technology is a new and promising solution to many challenges. Beam forming antennas have the ability to increase the spatial reuse, improve the transmission reliability, extend the transmission range and/or save the power consumption. If they are effectively used, they can significantly improve the network capacity, lifetime, connectivity a...
متن کاملEvaluation of a BIBD Based Directional MAC Protocol for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
The use of directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks can significantly improve global performance due to a high spatial channel reuse. Nevertheless, its introduction poses new location dependent problems related to the MAC protocol. In this paper, the Balanced Incomplete Block Design theory has been exploited to develop a new MAC protocol for wireless ad hoc networks using directional ant...
متن کاملDirectional routing protocols for ad-hoc networks
A directional routing approach for multihop ad-hoc networks, is presented which has been applied to two on-demand routing protocols: namely dynamic source routing (DSR) and ad-hoc on-demand distance vector routing (AODV). Both DSR-based and AODV-based directional routing protocols are designed to balance the tradeoff between co-channel interferences from nodes hops away and the total power cons...
متن کاملA Directional-to-Directional MAC protocol for ad-hoc networks
The use of directional antennae in ad-hoc networks has received growing attention in recent years. However, most directional MAC protocols assume interchangeable directional and omni-directional modes of operation. Such operation reduces the spatial gain and introduces the asymmetry in gain problem. In this paper, we propose a directional-to-directional (DtD) MAC protocol for ad-hoc networks th...
متن کاملDirectional Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocols in Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks: A Survey
This survey paper presents the state-of-the-art directional medium access control (MAC) protocols in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks (WAHSNs). The key benefits of directional antennas over omni-directional antennas are longer communication range, less multipath interference, more spatial reuse, more secure communications, higher throughput and reduced latency. However, directional antennas ...
