Abstract :
This paper presents the design and performance evaluation of an integrated hybrid MAC and topology control scheme (abbreviated IMTC) for machine-to-machine (M2M) area networks that require comparatively the high data rate communications. In order to maximize the network performance, IMTC is designed with a cross-layer concept of MAC and network layers, which provides the multi-channel TDMA scheduling based on the information of network topology optimized by transmission power control. Simulation results show that by using the proposed scheme, the network throughput and the energy efficiency can be significantly improved.
