CRMA MAC protocol: A simulative analysis

Computer Communications, 1993
This paper reports on an extended simulation analysis of the Cyclic Reservation Multiple Access (CRMA) Media Access Control (MAC) protocol. The analysis is divided into two parts. In the first part we study CRMA in underload conditions, i.e. when the offered load is lower than the medium capacity. In the second part we study CRMA in overload conditions,

Performance Evaluation of MAC Protocols

1996
When a new system is designed, different alternatives offering the same functionality have to be compared with respect to performance, reliability, modularity, robustness, hardware and software complexity, development costs etc. In particular when no implementations are available, modelling is often the only way of evaluating and comparing the ...

MAC Protocol Engine for Sensor Networks

GLOBECOM 2009 - 2009 IEEE Global Telecommunications Conference, 2009
We present a novel approach for Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol design based on protocol engine. Current way of designing MAC protocols for a specific application is based on two steps: First the application specifications (such as network topology and packet generation rate), the requirements for energy consumption, delay and reliability, and the

MAC-ASA: A New MAC Protocol for WMNs

2007 16th International Conference on Computer Communications and Networks, 2007
This paper presents a novel medium access control (MAC) protocol intended to provide multi-hop wireless mesh networks with a higher throughput. The proposed MAC-ASA (medium access control with anticipated scheduling and agreement) protocol uses a modified version of the 802.11 CSMA/CA contention handling procedure integrated with a dynamic (time ...

The S++ MAC protocol

Computer Networks and ISDN Systems, 1994
Abstract In this paper we describe the S++ protocol, a new protocol designed for Gbit/s LANs. The S++ protocol has evolved from our experience with an earlier protocol, called S, which was implemented as part of a Gbit/s LAN project. Our experience with S enabled us to identify ways by which the performance could be significantly improved while ...

MAC Protocol for CRSN

2014
Cognitive Radio (CR) technology has gained popularity in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) because of scarcity caused by the increase in number of wireless devices and service, and it provides spectrum-efficient communication for the resource constrained WSNs.

VC-MAC: A Cooperative MAC Protocol in Vehicular Networks

IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology, 2009
Vehicular networks are experiencing rapid growth and evolution under the increasing demand of vehicular traffic management and ubiquitous network connectivity. In particular, the amount of information to be downloaded from the roadside-deployed gateways is dramatically increasing.

H-Mac: A Hybrid MAC Protocol for VANET

2013
This paper proposes a Hybrid Mac protocol(H-MAC) that combines reservation and competition mechanisms to solve the sudden burst data flow at link layer of the VANET(Vehicle Ad hoc Network). Based on the entire network time synchronization, H-MAC protocol divides a frame cycle into two parts.

RS-MAC: A fusion ranging of WSN MAC protocol

2013 IEEE 4th International Conference on Software Engineering and Service Science, 2013
Focusing on ranging overhead for WSN, this paper researches the method of time-based ranging process into MAC protocol packet interaction, and analyzes ranging error and the method of error elimination, and proposes a fusion ranging of WSN RS-MAC protocol. The protocol can realize time-based ranging in the process of packet transmission.

Distributed Reservation-Based MAC Protocol for UWB WiMedia MAC

2012 IEEE 26th International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications, 2012
UWB WiMedia MAC has been widely used in wireless multimedia networks, but it suffers from inefficient channel utilization. In this paper, we propose a reservation based MAC protocol for multimedia data to increase the channel utilization efficiency. The proposed scheme has two components.
