Implementation of a Cross-Layer Sensing Medium-Access Control Scheme [PDF]
In this paper, compressed sensing (CS) theory is utilized in a medium-access control (MAC) scheme for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). We propose a new, cross-layer compressed sensing medium-access control (CL CS-MAC) scheme, combining the physical layer

On multiple access random medium access control [PDF]
In this paper, we develop a new class of medium access control protocol, which allows each user to transmit at different data rates chosen randomly from an appropriately determined set of rates. By using successive interference cancellation, multiple packets can be received simultaneously.

Auction-Style Cooperative Medium Access Control [PDF]
A cooperative Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol employing auction-style relay selection combined with superposition coding is designed. In our proposed scheme, the source achieves its target throughput with the aid of cooperation. The potential candidate relays carry out autonomous decisions concerning whether to contend for a transmission ...

An Optimal Medium Access Control with Partial Observations for Sensor Networks [PDF]
We consider medium access control (MAC) in multihop sensor networks, where only partial information about the shared medium is available to the transmitter. We model our setting as a queuing problem in which the service rate of a queue is a function of a
