Abstract--Intentional interference constitutes a major threat for communication networks operating over a shared medium where availability is imperative. Jamming attacks are often ...
In this paper, we study end-to-end performance characteristics of S-MAC, an energy-aware medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSN). WSNs are composed...
—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...
