... been proposed to predict the throughput of multiple nodes under the physicalinterference models in 802.11 networks. However, little workhas been done to apply these models in protocol design.Several ... energy consumption of Link 1 to 51%, Link 3 to 70%, Link 5 to 65%, and Link 7 to 58%,respectively. This result shows that C-MAC can effectively savepower consumption to extend the system life ... the schedules of nodes aresensitive to changes in network traffic or network topology.This paper presents a new MAC protocol called C-MAC thatis designed to achieve high-throughput bulk communication...
