MAC Protocols: A Review

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2013, Vol 14, Issue 6

Abstract

 Mobile adhoc networks (MANETS) are infrastructureless networks which uses radio signals, to establish communication among mobile nodes. MANET media is open shared media, multiple mobile nodes may  access the medium at the same time, which causes various MAC problems. This paper provides a review of  various MAC problems being faced by MANETS and various MAC protocols which try to resolve these issues
