— In sensor networks, MAC protocols based on Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) with wakeup and sleep periods have attracted considerable interest because of their low power co...
Wireless systems that form a body-area network must be made small and low power without sacrificing performance. To achieve high-throughput communication in low-cost wireless bod...
— The IEEE 802.15.4 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol is designed for low data rate, short distance and low power communication applications such as Wireless Sensor Networks (...
