—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...

IEEE 802.11, the standard of wireless local area networks (WLANs), allows the coexistence of asynchronous and time-bounded traffic using the distributed coordination function (DCF)...
Initially designed for WLAN's, IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) has also been widely used in the research of multihop wireless networks. The core MAC technique of IEEE ...
In this paper, we generalize the random access game model, and show that it provides a general game-theoretic framework for designing contention based medium access control. We ext...
— While the practical coding scheme [1] has been shown to be able to improve throughput of wireless networks, there still lacks fundamental understanding on how the coding scheme...
