A mathematical model for characterizing the performance of wireless access networks based on a carrier-sense multiple-access (CSMA) mechanism is derived. The model is developed through a statistical description of the interference power coming from stochastic geometry and by taking into account the hidden node problem. As an example of a specific application of the model, the IEEE 802.15.4 standard...
This paper presents an implementation of a Low Power Listening-based (LPL) Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol on a platform for Body Area Network (BAN) applications. LPL exploits the transmission of a burst of short packets, called preambles, to synchronize the transmitter and the receiver. In this way, devices are able to spend most of the time in sleeping mode, providing longer lifetime and energy...
