Abstract :
Medium access control (MAC) protocols coordinate channel access between wireless stations, and they significantly affect the network throughput of wireless ad hoc networks. To function normally, MANETs demand an efficient and distributed MAC protocol. We first discuss the challenges that are facing MAC in MANETs. Then we proposed an effective protocol scheme for energy efficiency.
