In this paper, we propose a cognitive radio based Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol for packet scheduling in wireless networks. Cognitive MAC protocols allow a class of users, called secondary users, to identify the unused frequency spectrum and to communicate without interfering with the primary users. In our proposed MAC protocol, each secondary user is equipped with two transceivers. One of...
The mechanism of channel allocation used in the medium access control (MAC) sub-layer for wireless devices in IEEE 802.11 standard is through a single MAC channel. The drawback with the single channel solution is when the number of nodes increases, the throughput is also reduced. However, using multiple channels solves this problem and increases channel utilisation efficiency, where channel allocations...
