The traffic congestion during data transmission is a challenging factor while designing the routing protocol at the
MAC layer. To address this issue, the packet precedence was considered and laid out effectively.
Therefore, we can conclude that in the case of using EIED algorithm the fairness of network is reduced if there is an attack at
MAC layer.
Duty cycle in
MAC layer and utilizing multiple paths are good approach to achieve energy efficiency.
In MANETs, cooperation at the
MAC layer can be exploited at the network layer to enhance the system's performance.
A base layer packet and an enhancement layer packet for a 3D video traffic are delivered from a 3D media server to logically separated
MAC layer buffers in eNB.
The 2D Markov chain which is used to represent the dynamic behavior of the backoff process in the
MAC layer is shown in Figure 4.
Probability Distribution of
MAC Layer Latency and Jitter
The
MAC layer of a mobile node is modeled by a M/M/1/Q queue, where Q is the queue length (in packets) [9], [10].
The Wi-SUN Alliance is supporting the emerging IEEE 802.15.4g standard for wireless communications of battery-powered equipment, and its supported
MAC layer protocol, as a means to ensure the compatibility of low-power smart meters and remote wireless sensor networks.
Ad hoc network routing protocol may detect failed link using hello messages, feedback provided to the protocol by the
MAC layer and passive acknowledgements.
To achieve this objective, priority levels are assigned at the
MAC layer using the partial knowledge of the CSI obtained from the physical layer and also by using the Queue State Information (QSI) at the
MAC layer.
IEEE 802.11ad is the new task group within IEEE 802.11 working group to define standardized modifications to both the 802.11 PHY and the 802.11
MAC Layer to enable operation in the 60 GHz frequency band (typically 57-66 GHz) capable of very high throughput.
