A Study of MAC Protocols for WBANs [PDF]
The seamless integration of low-power, miniaturised, invasive/non-invasive lightweight sensor nodes have contributed to the development of a proactive and unobtrusive Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN). A WBAN provides long-term health monitoring of a patient without any constraint on his/her normal dailylife activities. This monitoring requires the low-

UVOC-MAC: a MAC protocol for outdoor ultraviolet networks [PDF]
As an alternative to radio-frequency (RF) communications, optical wireless communications can support high data rates and low power operations while providing good jamming resistance. Our focus in this paper is on deep ultraviolet (UV) outdoor communications (UVOC) where solar blind and non-line-of-sight operations are attractive.

On Optical CDMA MAC Protocols [PDF]
A media access control (MAC) protocol for optical code-division multiple-access (CDMA) packet networks with variable length data traffic is proposed. This protocol exhibits a sliding window with variable size. A model for interference level fluctuation and an accurate analysis for channel usage are presented. Both multiple access interference (MAI) and
