U-MAC: a proactive and adaptive UWB medium access control protocol
Ultra wide band (UWB) technology has received increasing recognition in recent years for its potential applications beyond radar technology to communication networks. UWB is a spread spectrum technology that requires careful coordination among communicating nodes to jointly control link power and transmission rates. Here, we present ultra wide band MAC (U-MAC), an adaptive medium access control...
متن کامل. Introduction 2. Medium Access Control (mac) 2.1. Mac Protocol Structure
Broadband and mobile communications are presently the two major drivers in the telecommunications industry. Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is considered the most suitable transport technique for the Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN), due to its ability to flexibly support a wide range of services with Quality-of-Service (QoS) guarantees. These services are categorized in ...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol for Reliable Broadcast in Wireless Networks
Ab.wacrThis paper presents ABROAD, an adaptive medium access control (MAC) protocol for reliable broadcast packet transmission in wireless networks. ABROAD incorporates a collision-avoidance handshake within each slot of a synchronous transmission schedule, allowing nodes to reclaim and/or rewe idle slots while maintaining bounded ac. cess delay. Thus, ABROAD provides worst-case performance gua...
متن کاملQueen-MAC: A quorum-based energy-efficient medium access control protocol for wireless sensor networks
Major problems in the Medium Access Control (MAC) of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are: sleep/wake-up scheduling and its overhead, idle listening, collision, and the energy used for retransmission of collided packets. This paper focuses on these problems and proposes an adaptive quorum-based MAC protocol, Queen-MAC. This protocol independently and adaptively schedules nodes wake-up times, dec...
متن کاملSYN-MAC: A Distributed Medium Access Control Protocol for Synchronized Wireless Networks
In this paper, we propose a novel medium access control (MAC) protocol, called SYN-MAC (for SYNchronized MAC), based on a binary countdown approach tailored for wireless networks. SYN-MAC has several attractive features such as simplicity, robustness, high efficiency, fairness, and quality of service capability. We evaluate SYN-MAC in terms of collision probability, system throughput, and packe...
