The increase in physical (PHY) layer transmission rates in IEEE WLAN does not necessarily
give the corresponding increase of MAC layer throughput because of MAC overhead such …

Multi-channel ad hoc networks are promising technology to alleviate the spectrum scarcity in
dense networks. The main challenge for channel access in distributed multi-channel ad hoc …

Optimal CSMA, which is fully distributed wireless MAC theory, has provided a rule of
dynamically adapting CSMA parameters according to some theoretically developed …

In this paper, the performance of the ALOHA and CSMA MAC protocols are analyzed in
spatially distributed wireless networks. The main system objective is correct reception of …

In this paper, we present our results on the performance of MAC protocols in multi-hop
wireless ad hoc networks in terms of the newly proposed metric “aggregate multi-hop …

Abstract IEEE802. 15.4 is a standard designed for low rate wireless personal area network.
For its MAC protocol adopts the competition method to share wireless channel, collisions …

The analysis of an access priority mechanism for a high-performance medium access
control (MAC) protocol, the distributed queueing MAC protocol for wireless ad hoc networks …

In this paper, we investigate a new class of collision-prevention MAC protocols, called
carrier sense multiple access with collision prevention (CSMA/CP), for wireless ad hoc …

Wireless sensor networks have been developed in the way of higher speed, more stability,
and more energy efficiency in recent years. Because most wireless sensors are powered by …
