Token-DCF: An Opportunistic MAC protocol for Wireless Networks
—IEEE 802.11 DCF is the MAC protocol currently used in wireless LANs. 802.11 DCF is inefficient due to two types of overhead; channel idle time and collision time. This paper pr...

Energy-Delay Analysis of MAC Protocols in Wireless Networks
In this paper the tradeoff between energy and delay for wireless networks is studied. A network using a request-to-send (RTS) and clear-to-send (CTS) type medium access control (M...
