Bandwidth Efficiency in Mac Protocol for Ad Hoc Network

Bandwidth, power and collision are considered as three important resources in wireless networks. Therefore, how to manage these resources becomes a effect on wireless ad hoc network. These effects are not present in wire line networks, and evaluation of available bandwidth in wireless networks a difficult task. Furthermore, in wireless medium the available resources also vary with the protocol and its central network i.e. ad hoc network. In this thesis, a collision-aware spectrum assignment scheme has been proposed for Bandwidth Optical Networks allocates the available bandwidth and increases energy efficiency in multi hop collection networks compared to the traditionally used random back off. We improve the MAC protocols with details about the bandwidth, power and collision used and their limitations. However, the MAC is utilizing in link layer, the channel is easy to access by the CSMA/CD scheme. All channels to establish the channels’ situation and avoid collision, in the process of the frame duration access the TDMA, i.e. time slots are required in frame duration, and FDMA (Scheduled protocol) access the bandwidth allocation which every node gets a permanent allocation of bandwidth. The aim of this thesis is to initiate multiple channels in medium for FDMA, which constrain the collision of number of channel (N) and utilized bandwidth (W). Therefore, how to increase a MAC protocol to improve the bandwidth efficiency and decrease the energy utilization is necessary.
