Full-Duplex MAC Protocol Based on CSMA/CA for Switching Transmission Mode

Janus: A Novel MAC Protocol for Full Duplex Radio

This paper presents Janus, a novel MAC protocol for full–duplex wireless networks. Unlike other full-duplex MACs, Janus allows partially interfering nodes to cooperate by finding the appropriate transmission rates based on interference levels, making better use of the channel. Computing the optimal schedule and transmission rates is NPComplete, so Janus uses a cheaper heuristic approach. Janus ...

Adaptive Low-Power Listening MAC Protocol Based on Transmission Rates

Even though existing low-power listening (LPL) protocols have enabled ultra-low-power operation in wireless sensor networks (WSN), they do not address trade-off between energy and delay, since they focused only on energy aspect. However, in recent years, a growing interest in various WSN applications is requiring new design factors, such as minimum delay and higher reliability, as well as energ...

Towards a Dual-mode Adaptive MAC Protocol (DMA-MAC) for Feedback-based Networked Control Systems

Automated control systems play an important part in many industrial domains and the medium used for communication between devices in these systems is in transition from wired to wireless for cost reasons. Control systems have strict requirements on delay, throughput, and reliability, that vary with time during operation. Addressing these requirements requires predictable and robust protocols to...

Transmission strategies for full-duplex multiuser MIMO communications systems

Game Theory based Energy Efficient Hybrid MAC Protocol for Lifetime Enhancement of Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) comprising of tiny, power-constrained nodes are getting very popular due to their potential uses in wide applications like monitoring of environmental conditions, various military and civilian applications. The critical issue in the node is energy consumption since it is operated using battery, therefore its lifetime should be maximized for effective utilization ...
